The Method
So, how was the greatest blow to the art world pulled off? A pair of men, dressed as police officers, visited the museum one night. The museum guards didn’t question the fake officers who they permitted entry. The two guards stationed that night were then tied up and the thieves went about their business. In just 1 hour and 21 minutes, the men dressed as police officers cleared out around $500 million worth of art. To this day, the Stewart Gardner Museum offers a $10 million prize for relevant information.
