Art Crime and Security: An Introduction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798361494361)

Daring heists can have a glamorous image but in reality, art crime is a serious worldwide enterprise assisted by unscrupulous traffickers and a willing market. Theft, fakes, fraud and loss of national heritage are the unfortunate result.
This introduction to Art Crime and Security looks at the problem from the theft and looting of art and antiquities, the required security arrangements for museums and private collectors and the repatriation and recovery of art.
As well as the stories behind five famous thefts to an explanation of extensive Nazi plunder during World War II and what, if anything, can be done to effectively counter art crime by legislators, law enforcement and insurers.
