Anyone holding Caravaggio's "Nativity" will never be able to display it in public. Although according to an FBI estimate, the painting would have a value of about 20 million dollars, in fact there is none.

"The possession of a painting of such great value - Marshal Guelfo Giuliano Andrei wrote on October 30, 1969 in his report - constitutes a constant risk, such that it cancels any commercial value".

But it could have gone differently. Precisely because of its value, the world's second most sought-after work of art may have been cut into pieces and resold to unscrupulous collectors.

Perhaps thanks to the mediation of a Swiss trafficker, called for advice by Cosa Nostra bosses. The painting was stolen in Palermo by a gang of criminals.
