Stanley Museum of Art Senior Living Communities (SLC) Program Amanda Lensing, SLC Program Coordinator [email protected] (319) 467-0074 April 2, 2020 | Museum From Home Emails ISABELLA STEWART GARDNER MUSEUM HEIST On March 18, 1990, the largest art robbery in United States history took place in Boston. Thirteen works of art worth over $500 million were stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, including works by Rembrandt and Vermeer. Despite some promising leads in the past, the Gardner theft of 1900 remains unsolved. The museum, the FBI, and the United States Attorney's office are still seeking viable leads that could result in safe return of the art. The Gardner Museum is offering a $10 million reward for information leading to the recovery of the stolen works. • What Happened Inside The Gardner Museum During The Heist (Time 6:35) WBUR Boston’s NPR News Station produced this short video on the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist. • Last Seen: The Largest Unsolved Art Heist in History – A WBUR & Bost Globe Podcast Last Seen – Apple Podcasts WBUR’s 10-episode podcast on the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist is available via their website or Apple Podcasts. • Gardner Museum Theft – An Active and Ongoing Investigation Learn about the theft and see the works of art on the Gardner Museum’s website. • Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum – Gallery Tour Tour the galleries on Google Arts & Culture.
