Fresh Hope That a Stolen Caravaggio ‘Nativity’ Could be Found

The original wooden frame of Caravaggio's "Nativity" hangs in a chapel adjacent to the oratory where it was stolen, in the Oratory of San Lorenzo, in Palermo, Italy, on May 30, 2018. A Mafia turncoat said that a painting taken nearly 50 years ago in Palermo may have been cut into pieces and sold by a Swiss art dealer, reviving hope that the fate of “Nativity” could still be uncovered.
