Greek police recover Picasso, Mondrian paintings stolen in 2012

Published June 30, 2021, 9:04 AM ATHENS, Greece Two paintings by Pablo Picasso and Piet Mondrian that were stolen from the National Gallery in Athens in 2012 have been recovered by Greek police, officials announced here Tuesday. Picasso’s “Head of a Woman” and Mondrian’s “Stammer Windmill” were stolen on Jan. 9, 2012 along with an early 17th century sketch attributed to Guglielmo Caccia, the Greek national news agency AMNA reported. The two paintings were found hidden carefully packaged in a gorge on the outskirts of the town of Keratea in Greece’s eastern Attica region, near Athens, police officers told a press conference. A 49-year-old Greek builder, who was arrested as a suspect and confessed to the crime, said that he was an “art lover” and he had carried out the theft on his own, without accomplices.
