The three blank spaces on the wall of the Frankfurt Schirn Gallery are
probably more photographed than the old paintings which hung there until last Thursday. That was the day when thieves stole two
paintings by JMW Turner, which were on loan from London’s Tate Gallery. In fact, as theft increases, empty walls are becoming increasingly familiar sight in Europe’s galleries. The thieves are usually members of professional gangs who study the layout of their target in detail beforehand. They are becoming better at overcoming the tightest security. The thieves of Frankfurt waited until the gallery closed at 10 pm, overpowered the security guard before he could turn on the alarm system and escaped the paintings to a waiting car. The pictures are
valued at £37.7 million and, since they are too famous to sell, police suspect that the thieves will hold them to ransom. A £62,800 reward is being offered for information.

thieves, galleries may have to turn themselves into high security fortresses.
