"A picture taken on January 16, 2020 at the apartment of Dutch art crime investigator Arthur Brand in Amsterdam shows a rare 15th-century book of poems by Shams-ud-din Muhammad Hafiz's ""Divan"". - A stolen 15th-century book by the famed Persian poet Hafez has been recovered by a Dutch art detective after an international ""race against time"" that drew the alleged interest of Iran's secret service. The gold-leafed volume worth around one million euros ($1.1 million) was found to be missing from the collection of an Iranian antiques dealer after his death in Germany in 2007.
