Van Gogh Stolen: A Van Gogh oil painting worth about $1.7 million has been stolen from a Zurich customs depot, police said Tuesday. The theft was discovered last week when a prospective buyer wanted to see “Wheatfield With Sheaves,” painted in 1888 by the Dutch artist in Arles, France. Police said there were no clues to the theft.
