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>

一直就对自己无知的领域格外感兴趣。这本书从商品角度讲,排版、纸张都格外令人满意。作为一部记录片写实的作品来说,内容绝对是我们这些非官非贼非艺术家的普通百姓所毫不知晓的。中间名画和名侦探的照片,更是让人充满想象。似一部充满智慧的侦探小说,个人感觉还有点谢尔顿...
評分几年前在人大听一堂大课,课上了一半,几个修理工模样的人鱼贯而入。 他们很有礼貌地对教授说道:“你们继续,我们只是把前几天坏掉投影仪给拆下来修理。” 于是,教授讲他的,我们听我们的,修理工拆他们的。 后来他们拆完了,仍旧很有礼貌地向教授道歉,因为拆卸过程似乎打...

評分1994年2月12日一大早,两名男子在50秒内,用一架梯子就偷走了在挪威国家美术馆展出的、价值七千二百万美元的<呐喊>,爱德华·蒙克最出名的作品,容易得难以相信,甚至爬梯子时还搞笑地掉下来过一次。 本书围绕这次失窃,讲述了许多有关艺术名,尤其是名画失窃的历史、情景、内...
