Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The ultimate in cat burglary, art theft involves intelligent thievery and extensive knowledge of both the art world and the systems of protection within museums worldwide. Art is stolen for purposes of resale to private collectors, for ransom, or for the pure challenge of the theft. This book explores some of the most highly visible art thefts of the twentieth century, including works by Picasso, Monet, Rembrandt, Munch, and many others. This book was created and put into distribution by a team of dedicated editors using open source and proprietary publishing tools.
