The iconic pop artist's work, an unfinished portrait of former Soviet Union leader Vladimir Lenin, was stolen by an Ohio man who is now facing up to ten years in federal prison.
A missing Andy Warhol painting, worth nearly $200,000, has finally been recovered after being reported stolen from a luxurious Los Angeles home in 2021.
After the stolen work vanished without a trace, the owner of the art piece reported the theft to law enforcement and to the West Hollywood gallery where the print was purchased, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. The original thief, different from Light, first stole the print before bringing it into a local pawn shop who purchased it.
The high-value art was then shipped off to Dallas, as per Light's request, where it was inspected and set to feature in an upcoming auction before an employee of the auction house keenly sought the opinion of the West Hollywood gallery - where it came from. The stolen Lenin print is just one of many pinched Warhol prints. Pictured: Inside the West Hollywood Revolver Gallery
