Goya Etching Stolen in Colombia

Canada’s CBC reports that last Thursday thieves stole an engraving by Francisco de Goya from a temporary exhibition in Colombia.

The engraving Tristes Presentimientos de lo que ha de acontecer or Sad Premonitions of What Must Happen was one of 80 by the Spanish artist on loan from the Goya Fuendetodos Cultural Corporation of Zaragoza, Spain.

The work, created between 1810 and 1814 in a series Goya called Disasters of War, was part of a temporary exhibition in Bogota’s Gilberto Alzate Avendano museum.
