Ex-student’s artwork stolen over summer from Wentworth
A post-graduate has had works of art valued at £600 stolen whilst on display in Wentworth College.
Police are investigating the theft of the oil paintings by Jonathan Bray, which were on loan from a private collector based in Hertfordshire. They formed part of an exhibition of modern artists taking place in the college.
The paintings were reported stolen at 3:15pm on 14 July 2006 and it is believed they were taken at some point between 29 June and 14 July.
A University spokesperson has reported this kind of theft as “unusual” although he claims that because of the nature of the University as an open campus it can happen “from time to time”. Both the University and the police have asked that anyone with any information in relation to the theft please come forward.
It is currently unknown whether the paintings were taken by a student or a member of the public.
