FBI Has Suspects in Boston Art Heist, 23 Years Later

Tuesday, 19 March 2013 | by Pat's Picks

The Boston Globe reports that on the 23rd anniversary of the “greatest art heist in history,” the FBI has identified the people involved. In 1990, thieves dressed as cops broke into the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and made off with $500 million worth of art, including three Rembrandts, a Vermeer and sketches by Renoir. Although the agency didn’t release the names of the suspects, they said their investigation was in its final stages. The paintings have yet to be recovered.
