Karsh's photo of Churchill stolen.
I've been to Karsh's suite in the Chateau Laurier - they had his photo of George Bernard Shaw over the fireplace. I interviewed Karsh's assistant who told me she slapped Churchill on the back when she saw him in Parliament! "Good old Winnie!" she said. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2022/08/22/famed-portrait-of-winston-churchill-by-yousuf-karsh-swiped-from-chteau-laurier-in-ottawa.html update Sept 11, 2024, it's been found: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/winston-churchill-photo-yousuf-karsh-stolen-found-1.7318661
