Fakta

Lost Art Treasures explores the shadowy world of stolen, missing, and misplaced masterpieces, delving into the circumstances of their disappearances and the ongoing quests for their recovery. These treasures represent more than mere monetary value; they are vital pieces of our cultural heritage, and their absence leaves a significant void in our understanding of art history.

The book examines famous cases, such as the Just Judges panel of the Ghent Altarpiece and the Amber Room, highlighting the historical context, investigative processes, and the impact of these losses on the art world.

The book uniquely blends art history with elements of criminology and international law. It presents meticulously researched accounts, drawing from diverse sources like archival documents and forensic analysis, to reveal the sophisticated networks involved in art crime.

The narrative progresses from an introduction of the concept of art crime through detailed narratives of specific lost works, concluding with ethical implications of art recovery.
