A Different Type of Art "Museum"
Posted September 29th, 2011 by Manitou Galleries

Imagine a trove of more than 300 paintings, some dating back to 1532. This isn’t a collection you’ll likely ever get to see in one spot, but Polish police have uncovered hundreds of paintings in a 92-year-old bricklayer’s shed.

 

The bricklayer can’t speak due to recent strokes, but there seems to be speculation that some of the works could be among those looted by the Nazis from Poland. How they got into the shed remains unknown. The Telegraph UK’s story and video are here.
