4. CBS News did an article on Tarsila do Amaral in 2018, when there was a show of her work at MoMA ...

The stolen painting is one of several images included, so I assume that the theft happened after that. This painting and another that they show are listed as being from a "Private collection"; the others were safe in museum collections. I don't particularly like the paintings of humans, but I like some of the others. (They were painted much earlier than you might think when looking at them.)

They note that her 'work inspired a Brazilian art movement called "anthropofagia," or cannibalism'.

Glad they caught the crook-daughter. So much for filial piety!
