Stolen: Rembrandt, "Lady and Gentleman in Black" and "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee"
Johannes Vermeer, "The Concert"
Edouard Manet, "Chez Tortoni"
Location: Boston, Massachusetts
Year: March 1990
Worth: $300 Million
On St. Patrick's Day in Boston, two men in police uniforms (even donning fake mustaches), told security guards they were investigating a disturbance at the Isabella Gardener Museum. They handcuffed the guards and stole more than a dozen pieces by cutting them from their frames in 90 minutes. Convicted art thieves, dealers, South American drug cartels, the Irish Republican Army, Japanese underworld figures, and Boston-area mobsters were all suspected to be culprits of what's considered the biggest unsolved heist in US history. No one has been charged with the thefts and the pieces are still MIA.

First off this is a pretty terrible article, its is interesting but some one who reads this article will most likely want to hear what happened to the painting, how it was stole or how the authority's have no idea wtf happened. Instead this article is a complete let down it says the very lest amount about each heist possible and a in a few case nothing about the heist at all. Secondly, who gave the writer of this article this list of heist? because its utterly uninteresting these are some of the lamest heist I've ever heard off and as someone who is pretty well verst in art history I have to say check your facts some of these aren't even true.

While I agree with your sentiment Steven, you have the spelling and grammer of someone severely mentally challenged.

While I agree with you, doctor, I must point out that you spelled GRAMMAR wrong. That might be the funniest shit I have seen in a while. Irony is a bitch.
