The Taking of Caravaggio


El País reports today that Caravaggio’s The Taking of Christ (or the Kiss of Judas if you prefer, circa late 16th Century), was stolen from the Ukraine’s Odessa Museum of Western and Eastern Art. According to this report, the thieves entered the museum after breaking a second-floor window, and then helping themselves to this gem. The museum is currently closed while police use K-9’s to sniff out clues. More here (in español of course).
