Why did Hutch take the painting?

Why did Hutch take the painting? - Woman holding flowers in hands in water

In the movie, Nobody, Hutch burns the Russian mafia hideout and takes one painting with him. He carries the painting through several dangerous situations and gunfights, which seems risky. When Hutch is arrested by police, while he is feeding a cat, we can see the painting is still with him, covered in splattered blood. It is obviously important to him.

Why did he take it and what does he plan to do with it?

My assumption would be that he took the famous painting Vincent van Gogh's "the bedroom" from the Russian mafia and it was something he could take away after losing all his money, his business, and his gold. This would give him enough money to live off the grid.

Answer 2

As others have said I would imagine it would cover 'his expenses' but his face seemed to show that it resonated with him - might just be he liked it and decided to keep it rather than burn it up with the others (which was a waste). I dare say Hutch has other resources stashed away for a rainy day :-)

Answer 3

Those who identified the painting are correct...the reason for Hutch taking it is not for the money however. You can't just go sell a $60m Van Gogh that easily without attracting attention. The reason that Hutch took the painting is the same reason that Van Gogh painted it. It eased Van Gogh's mind and gave him solace, depicting his simple bedroom in his house at Arles, after a severe period of depression. It also symbolized the beginning of some pretty turbulent and psychotic times in Van Gogh's life...

Answer 4

I just saw This movie. An entertaining pleasure. Very nice. But why this painting? Who is the artist?

Anyone who knows a little about the style of well-known, expensive artists will recognize the big name here. Van Gogh. (At first, I thought I saw a Spitzweg, which confused me even more - thanks to the search engine for the clarification)

Anyone who's known a little bit more (Or questioned the machine here as well), recalls a spectacular art theft in the Netherlands 30 years ago. 20 paintings disappeared from a museum in Amsterdam with the value of hundreds of millions of dollars and the perpetrator was imprisoned. Paintings were lost, unknown however.

One of their paintings: this picture- Van Gogh's "the bedroom"

Nobody "Hutch" didn't pick just anyone. He took what was probably the most valuable.

However, many questions remain unanswered.
