A twice-stolen painting by Italian Renaissance master Titian that was once found in a plastic bag at a London bus stop has sold at auction for $22.3 million, CNN reports.

The painting "Rest on the Flight into Egypt" was auctioned at Christie's in London. It had a pre-sale estimate of $19-$32 million and was ultimately sold for $22.3 million.

The painting depicts Jesus, Mary, and Joseph resting on their way to Egypt after learning that Herod, king of Judea, wanted to kill the young Christ.

The work was written in the first decade of the 16th century—at the beginning of Titian's career.

After passing through the hands of various European aristocrats, the painting was stolen by Napoleonic troops during the French occupation of Vienna in 1809 and transported to Paris.

It was returned to Vienna in 1815 and again moved through private collections before ending up in the possession of John Alexander Thynne, 4th Marquess of Bath, in Wiltshire.

In 1995, the painting was stolen from Longleat, the home of Thynne's descendants, and disappeared for seven years before it was found at a bus stop in London by art detective Charles Hill.
