In the predawn gloom of a February day in 1994, two thieves entered the National Gallery in Oslo. They snatched one of the world's most famous paintings, Edvard Munch's <em>The Scream</em>, and fled with their $72 million trophy. The thieves made sure the world was watching: the Winter Olympics, in Lillehammer, began that same morning. Baffled and humiliated, the Norwegian police called on the world's greatest art detective, a half-English, half-American undercover cop named Charley Hill.</p>
In this rollicking narrative, Edward Dolnick takes us inside the art underworld. The trail leads high and low, and the cast ranges from titled aristocrats to thick-necked thugs. Lord Bath, resplendent in ponytail and velvet jacket, presides over a 9,000-acre estate. David Duddin, a 300-pound fence who once tried to sell a stolen Rembrandt, spins exuberant tales of his misdeeds. We meet Munch, too, a haunted misfit who spends his evenings drinking in the Black Piglet Café and his nights feverishly trying to capture in paint the visions in his head. The most compelling character of all is Charley Hill, an ex-soldier, a would-be priest, and a complicated mix of brilliance, foolhardiness, and charm. The hunt for <em>The Scream</em> will either cap his career and rescue one of the world's best-known paintings or end in a fiasco that will dog him forever.</p>

评分【呐喊】被偷了,在保安的眼皮低下……一个艺术品侦探的真实故事(不能多说,你们自己看,说了就不好玩了)。 另外一本书,也很有纪实风格,艺术品投资人自己揭露曾经参与的艺术品投资的内幕。 但是这些作家都不如丹·布朗,他们揭示真相,而他把谎言讲得跟真的一样,而且更...
评分这本书解释了好多艺术犯罪及破案的最基本独特之处。 1. 艺术犯罪的简单。博物馆是公共事业,经费短缺,博物馆保安力量脆弱而业余,况且博物馆的责任不是把价值最高的资产保存好,而是给尽可能多的人看到。在超大型的博物馆,很少人光顾的展室会很容易得手,比如卢浮宫。私人藏...
