A rare original Picasso artwork approximately worth up to $50,000 was stolen from a Milwaukee art gallery Friday afternoon.
The Wisconsin owner of DeLind Fine Art Appraisals on North Jefferson Street, told our NBC-affiliate station TMJ4 that the 1949 print was just one of 30 copies made and it was signed by the iconic artist 70 years ago.
The stolen piece is not owned by the shop, but was in their possession because it was soon going to be sold to a client.
Authorities say that the investigation into the theft is ongoing, and that anyone with information on the theft has been asked to contact Milwaukee Police.
