The museum’s alarm system went off at 5:48 a.m. local time, and police arrived five minutes later, the mayor said. Their swift arrival “forced the burglars to flee in haste and helped limit the scale of the theft,” the mayor said in a written statement sent to The Associated Press.
Two of the stolen works were found in the museum garden, but the two others are still missing, the statement said: “Portrait of Madame Colonna Romano” and “Young Woman at the Well.”

Thieves have stolen four valuable Renoir paintings from a museum on the French Riviera. The local mayor says the thieves were well-equipped and entered the Renoir Museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer through the garden.

I've been wanting to do this one forever. I kept taking pictures of perfect dandelions with my little Kodak but I could never get it to focus. Then my son got me my first smart phone, an S4. I could touch the screen and it would focus on that spot. I could also say "shoot" or "cheese" or "smile" and it would take the picture -- something the S20 doesn't do.
I discovered this perfect dandelion growing up by the fence in my backyard. The way the sun was shining, the ball was all lit up while the vines in the fence behind it were all in shadow. My S4 took a wonderful photo, but I was working on other things and it took years to get around to drawing it.
