Dozens of pieces of art, including three lifted from Yale’s Joseph Slifka Center for Jewish Life, were recovered from a house near the Yale New Haven Hospital after the man apprehended for stealing multiple works identified their location.

At a press conference at the New Haven Police Department headquarters Monday, the 39 recovered pieces were put on display with the hope that the public would help identify the owners. Three were identified as being stolen from the Slifka Center and five from the New Haven Public Library. The other 31 pieces remain unidentified.
