LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Norman Rockwell paintings often resonate because of their depictions of everyday life, but the life of one of his paintings has been anything but mundane.
"Russian Schoolroom," a Rockwell painting stolen from a gallery in the St. Louis suburb of Clayton, Mo., more than three decades ago, was found in Oscar-winning filmmaker Steven Spielberg's art collection, the FBI announced Friday.

The kid's looking at FREEDOM.

Is that a statue of Lenin on the desk??? WTH?

I'm sure if you think about the title of the painting, and the timeframe in which it was painted, it will be abvious why there's a bust of Lenin on the desk.

By the way, did you know that Lenin was a lawyer before he became a politico?

...I always knew there was something wrong with him.
