adam: "Savage Voyageur: "That’s sad, it kind of reminds me of the Led Zeppelin IV album cover with the old man carrying sticks. "
Led Zeppelins - Root Beer Lady Album that was never released."
Good one, Adam! HaHaHa! That painting looked so familiar, I thought I must have seen it in GM but Savage Voyageur has me thinking I was just remembering Led Zeppelin IV!

Maybe they swapped it out years ago and simply forgot about it. Galleries put reproductions on display all the time to preserve the original. Maybe it has been years and there has been enough turnover that no one there now was there when they swapped it out. Might be an odd theory but no more odd than someone going through all that effort to steal a $600 painting.
How would they even have gotten a scan of the painting without having the painting first? Either it's an inside job, or they simply forgot that they did it themselves. That would be pretty embarrassing if it turned up in their own vault.
