So I am sorry i do not understand. Which Pan was stolen ? the Sotheby's one or the Christie's one ? Both ? I see you don't publish a lot of comments...Not very objective of your part...Please do not lead people to hatred when you don't have serious proves like photos and just a :"Professor x said so..." I hate people like Medici but I fight them with serious leads. You cant accuse auction houses or dealers or collectors without serious proof.
There are two images of Pan. There are photographs but they have not been posted here.
