Two valuable paintings by Gauguin and Bonnard were discovered in an Italian worker's kitchen. The worker bought them at an auction for lost items for just $31, though they are worth millions. Gauguin's painting, 'Frutas en la mesa', was created in 1889 and is valued between $20 and $50 million. Bonnard's painting, 'La mujer con los dos sillones', was also recovered. Both paintings were stolen in 1970 from a wealthy London family. The rightful ownership is under dispute, as the worker legally acquired them.
