Court Appearance

Leonardo da Vinci - Madonna with the Yarnwinder (1500-30)On Thursday, five men appeared in the High Court in Glasgow charged with demanding £4.25m for the safe return of Leonardo da Vinci's Madonna with the Yarnwinder, which was stolen from Drumlanrig Castle, Dumfriesshire, in 2003. The painting - worth an estimated £30m - has been in the family of the Duke of Buccleuch for 200 years. Judge Lord Brailsford adjourned the case until later this year.
