The FBI agent in charge of art theft and fraud retires
Artdaily.org has a story about the coming retirement of Special Agent Robert K. Wittman, who has been working for 20 years on art theft for the FBI. I expect there will be a memoir out soon - and a movie! It's a little bit of a tease that Artdaily.org puts the Isabella Stewart Gardner Vermeer, The Concert, at the top of the page to illustrate the story. After all, that's never been recovered. Here's the FBI page on the theft.
