If we see it, there is maybe hope that it will come back ! Stolen artworks are never seen again. Here there is a pic, apparently in France

Ahaha nope. It looks like a backdoor clothes Shop flat.. I know Kidult have one ( his mates ), but o don’t think that it’s Kidult or just for hype.
If you see how they « work » on the door,
It looks very easy ( door was attacked with a crowbar and they even left a screwdriver on the floor ), thieves from the suburbs maybe ( or intramuros ) not Russian roulette, sorry, Mafia !

I understand what you mean. At the exception is that Banksy made it 3 years after the attacks, and he did not come just to make an hommage to the victims ( some other stencils were done, this one was the last one ).
So, I think it was just a thought not a promotion. It’s us, French, or Bataclan stafff or Parisians, who made of this door a great symbol because of Banksy. There was not such publicity about in France (apart in galery, streetart likers, artists or hipsters communities... ).
Banksy is just known in France since the shredded print a Sotheby’s because of millions K put in the dustbin (" they said at the TV" , lol ) , that’s all.
3/4 of french or more, does not know Banksy.
Even in Dismaland, some people queuing did not know Banksy. They thought it was just an horror attraction. I had to explain them ( ouch 💥) , I think they still more don’t know now who is he 😂

Without making accusations about some countries ( all collectors or rich people from all the nations like to covet and own ) , it is true that Intepol or other police found sometimes some classical artworks ( Van Gogh, Titien etc .. ) in the East Mafia.. Russia maybe but it could be Japanes, Europe, Chinese or America ones...
They need and want art only for the glory, for themselves, their house, to show to their friends, they don’t care about value etc .. And if they sell sone one day, it will be in a closer and secret world... that we don’t know..

"Stolen from Bataclan in 2019, a work attributed to Banksy found in Italy
The work, painted on a door, had been cut with a grinder.

A work attributed to Banksy, a tribute to the victims of the November 2015 attacks in Paris and stolen in 2019 from the Bataclan, was found during a police operation in central Italy, learned the AFP Wednesday with the riflemen.
"We recovered the stolen door at Bataclan with a work by Banksy depicting the sad girl," a senior rifle officer at Teramo told AFP. The operation was initiated at the request of the French police and carried out in the presence of French police, a responsible official. "I can't tell you anything else, a press conference by the prosecutor of L'Aquila", the capital of the Abruzzo region where the work was found, "will take place tomorrow morning," he said. added.
Cut with a grinder
This work, attributed to the famous anonymous British artist Banksy, had been painted on a back door of the Parisian performance hall of the Bataclan, in the form of a tribute to the very place where 90 people were killed on November 13, 2015 during the terrorist attacks who hit Paris. It had been stolen in January 2019, with the door on which it was painted, cut out with a grinder.
According to the daily La Repubblica, quoting the prosecutor of L'Aquila, the door was found on a farm in the Abruzzo countryside. The operation took place on a search ordered by the prosecution and this discovery "was made possible thanks to investigations by the prosecutor's office in collaboration with the French police and justice," the newspaper said.
Made with stencil and white paint, the work attributed to Banksy representing a sad-looking female character on one of the emergency exits, located behind the Bataclan, in the passage through which many spectators of the Eagles concert of Metal Death had escaped during the terrorist attack."
Volée au Bataclan en 2019, une œuvre attribuée à Banksy retrouvée en Italie

Une œuvre attribuée à Banksy, hommage aux victimes des attentats de novembre 2015 à Paris et volée en 2019 au Bataclan, a été retrouvée au cours d'une opération des forces de l'ordre dans le centre de l'Italie, a appris l'AFP mercredi auprès des carabiniers.
«Nous avons récupéré la porte volée au Bataclan avec une œuvre de Banksy représentant la jeune fille triste», a indiqué à l'AFP un officier supérieur des carabiniers à Teramo. L'opération a été initiée à la demande de la police française et menée en présence de policiers français, a précisé ce responsable. «Je ne peux rien vous dire d'autre, une conférence de presse du procureur de l'Aquila», chef-lieu de la région des Abruzzes où l'œuvre a été retrouvée, «aura lieu demain matin», a-t-il juste ajouté.
Découpée à la meuleuse
Cette œuvre, attribuée au célèbre artiste britannique anonyme Banksy, avait été peinte sur une porte arrière de la salle de spectacle parisienne du Bataclan, en forme d'hommage sur le lieu même où 90 personnes ont été tuées le 13 novembre 2015 lors des attaques terroristes qui ont frappé Paris. Elle avait été volée en janvier 2019, avec la porte sur laquelle elle était peinte, découpée à la meuleuse.
Selon le quotidien La Repubblica, citant le procureur de l'Aquila, la porte a été retrouvée dans une ferme de la campagne des Abruzzes. L'opération a eu lieu sur une perquisition ordonnée par le parquet et cette découverte «a été rendue possible grâce aux enquêtes menées par le bureau du procureur en collaboration avec la police et la justice françaises», a précisé le journal.
Réalisée au pochoir et à la peinture blanche, l'œuvre attribuée à Banksy représentait un personnage féminin à l'air triste sur l'une des sorties de secours, située derrière le Bataclan, dans le passage par lequel de nombreux spectateurs du concert des Eagles of Death Metal s'étaient échappés pendant l'attaque terroriste.

Banksy painting stolen from Bataclan, by denzil on Jun 11, 2020 19:20:48 GMT 1, 
ROME (Reuters) - A mural by secretive British street artist Banksy stolen from the Bataclan theatre in Paris, where Islamist gunmen killed 90 people in 2015, has been found in a farmhouse in central Italy, police said on Thursday.
The work, one of a series of murals painted in June 2018 in the French capital, shows a veiled female figure staring mournfully downwards.
Thieves stole the mural in January last year, apparently using portable grinders to remove a fire-exit door before carrying it off in a van, the daily La Repubblica reported.
Magistrates in the central city of L’Aquila said the mural had been recovered on Wednesday morning from an attic.
Emanuele Mazzotta, a police commander from the nearby town of Alba Adriatica, said the mural had been found in a house in the countryside but it appeared that the occupants may not have been aware of the value of the artwork or what it was.
“The man who on the other hand brought the Banksy mural inside the house, had total control over it, he had free access to the house and the door was placed in the upper part of the attic,” he told a news conference.
The Bataclan, one of Paris’ best-known rock venues, was stormed by militants during a concert in November 2015, as part of coordinated attacks around the city that killed 130 people.
Banksy, who keeps his real identity secret, has become one of the most distinctive personalities of the modern art scene with a series of witty artworks in public places that mix street art techniques with powerful political points.
He has most recently reacted to the death of black American George Floyd after a white police officer knelt on his neck.
He also proposed a new presentation of the toppling of 17th century slave owner Edward Colston that was brought down by protesters in the artist’s home city of Bristol.

That must give the artist a smile; glad they can bring that one home.

Banksy painting stolen from Bataclan, by JockoLad on Jun 23, 2022 22:17:20 GMT 1, I see some men have been found guilty of the theft of the above work.
Now, can anyone help explain to what the image is of?
All I can see is someone in a beekeeper suit. I honestly cannot make out the significance of it.
I look forward to being educated…

Banksy painting stolen from Bataclan, by My Name is Frank on Jun 24, 2022 8:27:58 GMT 1, Its the image of a young person mourning a loved one lost too soon on the door to the bataclan where a high number of largely young people died in a terrorist attack. Nothing smart about it, nothing edgy, a genuine tribute.

Banksy painting stolen from Bataclan, by JockoLad on Jun 26, 2022 12:58:16 GMT 1, Thank you for this.
I think I came across as a bit abrupt and insensitive in my initial post - that was not my intention.
it was more the composition of the image and where each component of it was originally sourced.
MET graciously sent me a direct message with source imagery to explain the context and it is now clearer to me. I now appreciate more the symbolism and realise that Banksy spent considerable time putting the piece together.
I’m delighted it has been recovered and hope it will continue to be viewed as a lasting monument to the many who lost their lives on that dreadful evening.
