JAKARTA - The mayor of a city in France believes Madonna is the owner of the painting that went missing during World War I.

Brigitte Four\'e, the mayor of Amiens in northern France, insists there is a "special relationship" between his city and Queen Pop in the form of a "missing" painting that Madonna may currently own, according to The Guardian.

Four\'e hopes that the painting entitled 'Diana and Endymion' by J\'erganme-Martin Langlois can help secure the success of the bidding for Amiens to become the capital of European culture by 2028.

"Madonna, you may have never heard of Amiens... but there is a special relationship between you and our city," Fouree said in a video message.

This painting may have been a work loaned to the Amiens museum before the first world war after which we lost track of it, "he continued, begging the diva to lend the painting.

The painting, ordered by Louis XVIII, completed in 1822, was exhibited at the Muswa Des Beaux-Arts which is now the Mus way de Picardie in Amiens from 1878, but was deemed destroyed when the city was bombed in 1918.

According to an article in the French newspaper, Le wrong, the painting resurfaced in an auction in New York in 1989, where Madonna paid 1 million for it, or three times more expensive than expected.

A curator from Amiens reportedly only realized it in 2015 in the background of a photo of Madonna at her home published in Paris Match magazine.
