as a genuine Renoir.Last year, Fuqua planned to have the painting 
sold at auction, where it was expected to fetch at least $75,000. 
But the auction was postponed after it was learned that the Baltimore 
Museum of Art reported the painting stolen in 1951. Records show an 
insurer, the Fireman's Fund, paid a $2,500 claim on the theft.The insurer 
says it is now the rightful owner, based on payment of that 
claim.According to an appraisal commissioned by the FBI, Renoir painted 
"Paysage bords de Seine," or On the Shore of the Seine, on 
a linen napkin in 1879 on the spot at a riverside restaurant 
for his mistress.The appraiser says the Renoir's value is about $22,000, 
much less than the auction house estimated, because Renoir's paintings have 
fallen out of favor with some art collectors who consider them old 
fashioned and because questions about the painting's ownership and possible 
theft diminish its value to collectors.Fuqua, who had managed to remain 
anonymous until the court case was filed, told the FBI under penalty 
of perjury that she bought the painting at a flea market in 
Harpers Ferry, W. Va., never believing the painting to be a true 
Renoir, even though a plate reading "RENOIR" is attached to the frame. 
She describes herself as an "innocent buyer" and questions the FBI's authority 
to seize the painting."Because I am not an art historian, collector, appraiser, 
or dealer, I lacked the expertise to identify the Renoir Painting's authenti
esuit initiatives are high 
schools or middle schools in poor communities, and programs that bring online 
college-level classes to refugees in Africa and elsewhere.Whatever is ahead, 
Jesuits are aware this is a signal moment.Francis has visited with and 
exchanged letters and visited with the Jesuit superior general, the Rev. 
Adolfo Nicolas, with both pledging to work together as brothers. A photo 
of the two embracing is circulating around the Jesuit world.___Follow Rachel
