Wow!
(
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-24794970) "A collection of 1,500 artworks confiscated by the Nazis in the 1930s and 1940s has been found in the German city of Munich, media reports say. The trove is believed to include works by Matisse, Picasso and Chagall, the news magazine Focus reports."
I hope they find more of these stashes.
On a related note, this is a great documentary on the Nazi art thefts, their attempted cultural sterilisation of Europe (which was nearly total in Poland and other early conquests) and the heroic efforts to hide and protect the artistic treasures of the Louvre from the Nazi occupation of France. (

*observation that the statement "All is not lost" is logically equivalent to "None is lost", which is of course not true (which could also be expressed as "false")*

When you still have the ZB-2000 spooling magnetic tape on the floor, perhaps not all is lost after all.
