HELP! What was this programme on stolen art?

[itsalifetimesworkfella]

I started watching Fake or Fortune and remembered a programme I saw ages ago which I thought was FOF but having trawled Wikipedia it isn't.

In the programme, an ordinary person had a painting that turned out to be worth a small fortune BUT a rich family stepped in saying the painting belonged to them and produced a diary (?) showing mention of it and took it!

The art dealer supporting the ordinary person was furious.

Ring any bells?

Ah, found it.

It is Fake or Fortune and was the Children Under a Palm by Homer painting. It is still in the courts under dispute.

Sounds really interesting! I've only seen one episode of FOF last week or the week before where a woman had bought a painting from her aunt who had owned a gallery, for £165,000 only to be told by the last remaining expert on the artist that it was fake! Fiona Bruce was speechless.

Watch this episode if you find it. It's astonishing. The case is still going on.
