Leonardo da Vinci’s Gioconda, Edvard Munch’s The Scream, The Silent What do these paintings have in common besides the fact that they are all world masterpieces? What unites them is that they were all once in the hands of art hunters. Theft of art is also a kind of art. The reader is waiting for the work-crime stories from the life of professional thieves of cultural values and desperate adventurers who fool museum guards and alarm systems, replace the originals with copies, etc.
Fortunately, much of the stolen property is returned to its owners. And this is due to the fact that the art carabinieri are involved in the case. Such a police department, which investigates art crimes exclusively, exists only in Italy, a country where thefts are recorded every day. Fabio Isman, a journalist who has covered Italy’s high-profile events and written about art for many years, is personally acquainted with many art carabiners and is more aware than anyone else of the most interesting cases in their work.
