A painting by the famed Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh has been stolen from the Singer Laren museum in the Netherlands, said museum officials.
Thieves broke into the museum around 3.15am on Monday morning and stole the artwork featuring the vicarage garden in Nuenen in the spring of 1884, titled Spring Garden.
The painting, estimated to be worth up to £5m, was on loan to the Singer Laren museum from the Groninger Museum. No other art pieces were burgled.

5 million seems pretty low for a Van Gogh painting, but maybe it's a buyer's market now?
