Artwork stolen in Sevenoaks burglary

Detectives are appealing for help to recover three paintings stolen during a burglary in Sevenoaks.

The artwork was taken, along with other valuables, after a house was broken into and a room was set on fire. 

The burglary happened between Wednesday 3 and Thursday 4 January 2024, at an address in Kippington Road.

The victim returned home to find a fire had been lit in one of the rooms which had gone out but left scorch marks on the walls.

It is reported that as well as the paintings, a black Saab estate was stolen from the driveway.

Other possessions were also taken, including items of porcelain and jewellery.

Can you help?

An investigation remains ongoing, and images have now been issued showing two of the stolen paintings. There are no photos of the third missing painting, which carries a picture of cows.

Officers are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen anything suspicious in the area at the time.

Kent Police is also urging anyone who may have been offered items such as those described as stolen to get in touch.

Anyone with information should call the west Kent appeal line on 01622 604100, quoting reference 46/2704/24.
