Missing piece of an exciting international art world jigsaw puzzle
comes to light in Norwich at the Castle Museum
 
The story so far:
The third quarter of Belgian Surrealist artist René Magritte's lost painting of two female nudes La Pose enchantée is re-discovered hidden under another painting La Condition humaine in Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery
 
The whereabouts of the fourth and final quarter remains unknown.

The painting in question is about to go on view at the Pompidou Centre in Paris as part of a major exhibition of Magritte's paintings.
