Framed

72. The Takeaway Rembrandt


Listen Later

This week on Framed, we’re diving into one of the strangest little art-crime stories ever: the tale of Portrait of Jacob de Gheyn III, the tiny Rembrandt that became known as the Takeaway Rembrandt after being stolen four different times from the same gallery. We get into the absurd heists, the bizarre ways the painting kept disappearing and reappearing, the criminals who realized it was easier to steal than to sell, and why this one small portrait became legendary in the art world.
