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>

从此书可以学习到,欧洲的博物馆、艺术馆之类的保安设备很落后,但是人家很实在,展出的都是真东西!所以才有这么搞笑的偷盗史…… 所以还是应该向中国的博物馆学习啊!上海博物馆里全是复制品,一般没有谁会去偷只有10岁年龄的尿壶的吧……
评分读罢此书总算明白了,偷画贼并不像电影里那么潇洒、高智商,他们也是普通人,甚至很笨。大多数贼并不懂得名画的价值,因此,很多名画被盗后没有好好保存,垃圾箱,洗衣机后面...甚至被撕毁或者扔到河里,各种可能都有。在偷画贼眼中,如果名画卖不出手,就毁掉它,这样至少不...

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...
评分如果再有一位性感的美女 一部漂亮的电影需要的元素就齐了 原来蒙克的《呐喊》有四幅 原来1994丢失的那幅被面是草稿 原来右下角有烛泪 原来脸部还有修改过 知道了很多源于艺术品的趣闻 还有很多犯罪心理学方面的东西 很好的纪实小说
