Sure but those are located in storage, not on display and the thefts that have occurred that I’m aware of have been on pieces in display.

I guess - is your overall point that criminals only care about European art which is why it’s stolen?

Yes - the value that the world places on European art is disproportionately high, which makes it so much more worthwhile to target than the rest.
