I forgot to link to this earlier in the week, but Carol Vogel had
a great story in The New York Times about a woman who found a million dollar Rufino Tamayo painting in the garbage. Turns out it was stolen in 1987 and it's now been reunited with its rightful owner, who will be selling it at Sotheby's next month. The finder will receive a promised $15,000 reward from the seller, plus an undisclosed (but "smaller") finder’s fee from Sotheby’s.
