코로나19으로 미술관이 폐쇄된 가운데 30일 새벽 네덜란드 암스테르담 인근 라렌의 싱거 라렌 미술관(Singer Laren Museum)에 전시 중이었던 빈센트 반 고흐의 풍경화 'The Parsonage Garden at Nuenen in Spring'가 도난당했다. 도둑들은 유리 정문을 부수고 명화를 훔쳐 달아난 것으로 알려졌다.
반 고흐가 1884년 누에넨의 부모와 살던 시절 그린 이 풍경화는 그로닌거뮤지엄(Groninger Museum) 소장품으로 싱거 라렌의 특별전 '영혼의 거울-얀 트로프에서 몬드리안까지(Mirror of the Soul – From Toorop to Mondrian)'에 대여 전시 중이었다.
이 회화의 가치는 약 600만유로(80억원)으로 알려졌다. 30일은 빈센트 반 고흐(1853. 3. 30-1890. 7. 29)가 태어난 날이다.

In the early hours of Monday 30 March the painting Spring Garden, the Parsonage Garden in Nuenen in Spring (1884) by Vincent van Gogh was stolen from Singer Laren. The painting, on display as part of the museum’s exhibition Mirror of the Soul – From Toorop to Mondrian, was on loan from the Groninger Museum.
‘We are deeply shocked, angry and saddened’, said museum director Jan Rudolph de Lorm. ‘A magnificent and poignant painting by one of our greatest artists has been taken from the community. It is terrible for the Groninger Museum and for Singer Laren, but above all for every one of us. Art exists to be shared, to enjoy, to inspire and offer comfort, particularly in times such as these. Art is vital to our culture.’
‘Security at Singer Laren complies with protocol. It has been coordinated with the insurance experts, with whom Singer Laren is currently in close consultation’, said Evert van Os, managing director.
An investigation has been launched, involving experts from several fields, including forensic investigators, detectives and members of the national crime squad specialised in art theft.
