Two stolen art items, with ties to Pittsburgh, highlight two of the FBI’s “Find Art Friday” campaign on Twitter (now called X).
The FBI out of Pittsburgh is highlighting a silk screen print from Andy Warhol that has been missing since 2015.
“Portrait of Louis Brandeis” was produced by Warhol in 1980 and was part of a collection of paintings stolen in the Los Angeles area. The painting was replaced with a fake.
The portrait was part of a series called “Ten Portraits of Jews of the Twentieth Century”.
It was signed by Warhol in the lower right corner and is 40” x 32”.
The FBI out of San Antonio also posted on Friday that they are looking for a missing gold and diamond Pittsburgh Penguins Stanley Cup ring.
The ring is from the Penguins’ 2009 Stanley Cup run.
It weighs 83.6 grams.
No word on who owns the ring or when it was stolen.
