Omschrijving
Here are stories of high-stakes, brazen art crimes from around the world with new insights on ongoing cases by two journalists counted among the most 100 influential people in the art business. "True crime fans and aficionados of culture will appreciate this dive into the dark side of the art world." --Publishers Weekly The art world is one of the most secretive--and largely unregulated--of global businesses, and the list of its crimes run long and deep.
