LONDON, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- The Art Loss Register in London said 28 paintings by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch have been lost or stolen in recent years.
Antonia Kimbell of the section for stolen works at the Art Loss Register said the works would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in the legal market, The Norway Post reported Thursday.
However, Kimbell said paintings are commonly sold for less than 10 percent of their value in the illegal trade.
