I am trying to research other stolen paintings mentioned in the Robert Leeds segment. It is hard because I don't know how to spell alot of these names, but I will pass on any info I can find in the coming days.

Impression, Sunrise by Claude Monet, which gave the impressionist movement its name, was stolen in 1985, but recovered in 1990.

I know UM did an update on this, Van Gogh's Potato Eaters, Sunflowers, and another painting were recovered. it is item number 6 on this link

Now I'm getting confused because I know there were different paintings mentioned and shown when the segment re-aired, so now I have to find the rerun of that segment.

Rodin's Mask of man with a broken nose was recovered. It was notable as being the only known time a shot was fired during an art robbery in the United States, but thankfully nobody was hurt
