Nobody has been arrested.
Los Angeles County sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore says detectives got a tip from an anonymous caller on Monday evening that the Dutch master’s 17th century sketch “The Judgment” was in a suburban Encino church.
The name of the church wasn’t disclosed at a dawn Tuesday news conference.
A curator confirmed the artwork’s authenticity at 12:05 a.m. Tuesday.
The framed 11-by-6 11-inch (28-by-16-centimeter) drawing was on an easel in the lobby of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Marina del Rey when it was stolen Saturday night.
