Anne Hathaway’s lover returns stolen art
By ANIThursday, May 13, 2010
NEW YORK - Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway’s beau, Adam Shulman, returned a painting that he had stolen in broad daylight, to its rightful owner.
Shulman had swiped the mural from a construction site in broad daylight on Saturday, but phoned the owner, apologized and returned the artwork.
“I got my art back. I’m happy,” The New York Post quoted owner Ken Hart, president of H and H Builders, who’s not pressing charges.
In a reflection of Hathaway’s previous boyfriend - convicted scam artist Raffaello Follieri - Shulman ripped off the mural, painted on a plywood fence by street artist Mr. Brainwash, whose real name is Thierry Guetta.
Days after the five-finger acquisition, Shulman decided to give it back.
The actor was working in California, so his accomplice from Saturday and two friends put the art in the back of a pickup truck and delivered it yesterday to another H and H construction site. (ANI)
