Moore Sketch Theft

Henry Moore's sketch of Three Reclining Figures On Pedestals, valued at about £45,000, is one of three artworks stolen from the Trinity House Fine Art gallery in Broadway, south Worcestershire, by four men or youths. The theft seems to have taken place on 6 August. Such news seems to take a couple of days to reach London, despite the fact that time is of the essence if the stolen artworks are to be recovered. Are the carrier pigeons of fuzz in the sticks overfed and too fat to fly? For Goodness' sake!
