In the early hours of March 18, 1990, two men dressed as police officers entered Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and walked out with over $500 million worth of art. The crime scene was bizarre. The guards were found tied up in the basement. The stolen pieces included masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Manet, and others—none of which have ever been recovered.
In part one of this two-part series, Joel and Steph dive into the events of that night, exploring how the theft unfolded, what was taken, and why this remains the most valuable art heist in modern history. They explore the strange choices made by the thieves, the details left behind, and the early theories that gripped the public and baffled investigators.
