the hand overs are pretty much sort of the sliced. it been kind but got a but i can't say. but given the negotiations on my own experience to shift things are looking on as long as as as he a positive for week in november 2020 bash was confident. the dresden jewels would soon return a ransom for stolen our treasures in the form of a table stalked with cash, with a new concept for stephanie called a half to the swell uncle trump without, as i took him out for a private sector. bit like this is rare, unsurprisingly no money visits to victor under. normally, the thieves will contact the aggrieved party about an offer, in fact, not on the board, but some one going public, literally putting money on the table is pretty unusual from tish, made it off by ones. and that's because of the unique nature of the saxon moral treasury. are these kind of these a succession starts shuts us was, i'm cold, a half has spent years writing about our crime. germany alone sees an average of for work stolen every day. one factor, he says,

is that art is becoming increasingly expensive and lucrative as it needs all figured it would have excavation, unquote. there's never been so much money in the arc markets, as gallery owners, an auction houses will tell you, arkansas and kind of since may when banks offer 0 interest. and you already have enough villas and yachts and pricey watches in having a bank see or a vanguard, or gerhard richter on the wall becomes a starter symbol. and gather a stout and of hunting. and that something people with enough money are willing to pay a lot of money for light c as airfield. a fellows took him eager ard investors can be found at events like art basil. the fair brings together the worlds of art and finance. with wheeling and dealing conducted over champagne and oysters. bother with a heavy. this is typical basil crowd. the thea,

to come after the fall of communism. like you had a lot of very rich russians in the yeltsin era, discovering the arch market the, the quote for the opening up of china also generated a lot of extremely well funded collectors of us. and that new boom never really entered before with a boom that does not only attract legitimate collectors and investors as elsewhere where there's money to be made. there's criminal activity. emily ebbing house works for the world's largest private database of looted art and antiques. her job is to track down and recover works that have been stolen. economists, i can't provide specific figures here, but there must be 2 to 5000 bucks on show here. i and the chances of that be nothing here deserving a closer look. cross are extremely slim manion cooking was that the other giving ebbing house is an art historian, specializing in the origin of artworks and other cultural assets.

a large number of stolen works do end up back on the arc market problem at the of mass veins. and some i'm at not fez. we often encounter classic theft where most exhibitors genuinely believe they have an intimate work until we say sorry. but this was stolen 10 or 15 years ago, and i think the yan, my story vaughn, and that happens with both oh paintings niles and works from the 19 sixty's or eighty's. my father is ebbing house and her colleagues that art last register, scour all the major fairs for stolen merchandise and make regular catches any paintings, sculptures and photos up for sale at such events. first, have to have their origin and history verified option and leave that he might not hybrid. i've had cases of people screaming at me for half an hour because we found some things with it can be awkward, but ultimately the fat organized say they don't want anything that shouldn't be on

sale here for legal or ethical reasons. and exhibitors have to comply 20 months. pregnant misses dalrish. they're letting them out every year. art last register solves around $200.00 cases of stolen art or thieves often face a major problem while their hall is extremely valuable, it is often uns sellable. so why do criminals continue to target museums and galleries? dear? i'm foster gone, toford as constantly. fortunately, the immediate reason is utterly per now and at the same time shocking. so just because they can do us deeper, cavenella criminals can tell how per the security is at public collections. got it from his unknown because he hits feeder, tater, montague. and a lot of the moni think later about what to do with their hall. and then wonder how they're going to be able to get rid of it. so they have to approach the owner, demanding ransomware going on. what's called art, nothing,

not loser. good. and that's exactly what happened at an internationally renowned frankfurt gallery in 1994. the churn const holler enjoys frequent collaborations with the likes of the pompidou center and new york's museum of modern art. at the time it was featuring to works by english painter, william turner shade, and darkness, and light and colors. ah tater, the thieves locked themselves inside him, dominates the shin, had decided not to have surveillance cameras for financial reasons. he stood her believing it could insure security using other options. with the building deserted, they overpowered the guards and tied them up. professor, after removing the arch from the wall, they fled via a side exit in the direction of the cathedral stood before driving off and van. but i'm inclined plans after eventually being able to free themselves. the guards triggered the alarm, and then you had as always,

police investigators at the crime scene. wondering who could be responsible. harvick on disco visas on news of the theft was met with shot in germany, britain and across the international art seen as images of the empty walls were published. frankfurt police launched a criminal investigation over in london. the disappearance of the to turner's left, the british art world stunned. they'd been on loan from the cities, tate gallery, one of the world's major collections of modern and british art. at the time, sandy nairn was the tates director of programs the 29th of july 1994 that his sunday sister always in my mind. and it was nicholas serrato, the director of taste. and he said, we have this terrible news from frankfurt. and i realized i was only just awake, it was very early in the morning. i couldn't. it was very hard to take in what he

was saying. but he explained that the news has come, that these 2 paintings have been stolen from the shan kristela. 3 years later, 2 members of the yugoslav, mafia were convicted for the shirt, break in each sentence to several years in jail. the paintings themselves, however, remained at large. the works in question are beloved in britain, their english creator, joseph mallard, william turner, is considered his country's foremost painter of the romantic era. his style of depicting the elements of fire, water and light, is still to day considered revolutionary. it is quite difficult to say how important j m w turner is to the idea of british painting. he is the kind of way of thinking of british painting becoming something

i'm in the we're artists before turner, but really he changes the whole of british art. and he, at the end of his life, he himself decided to make a collection of particular paintings to give to the nation nerin and his colleagues from the tate did. all they could detract down the 2 works. he made repeated trips to germany to talk to authorities while also holding press conferences on the paintings possible whereabouts. 5 years after the theft, an attorney who had contacts within the frankfurt criminal community, reached out. but he said, i have important information. i have information from people who know where the paintings all. so of course we were very suspicious with you know, how do you have information? what is this information we'd had many, many false leads. i mean, one of the things that emerged was a sense that criminality leads to more criminality.

the tate gallery resorted to negotiating with the criminals. it took until the year, 2002 and a half 1000000 euros for the deal to proceed near and flew to frankfurt and took art expert roy perry with him. yet to know that it was the painting. and then what if it had been a copy for if it had been a fake, had been brought back. and so it was crucial that i could say to roy perry, you must examine this 1st. and he had the right records, the other photographs. but he looked at it and we were waiting. and then he said, he said it's like missing an old friend. and he knew that was the turner. oh, in total, the teeth spent around $4000000.00 euros to recover the paintings. but

the strategy of doing business with criminals would prove problematic. vince and crew from to me that when a not snapping job like this works, we don't actually get caught and collect a lot of money via middleman. and then of course, that's an incentive for, of the thieves to do a to tater. so it was not, it was a story in the media, not just in germany, but world wide front of me shooting when the pictures resurfaced. that's the beauty of you. that of the tate was pretty opened about having paid money. although that was never any mention of a ransom because they just said it was for information leading to the recovery. advisor did some more award than a ransom in a balloon or in terms of museum security. every successful case is a disaster, museums issued on z for the tate gallery. it was a total success for the because they got their painting, spac approved, young people, belittle them. london, the british capital and the center of the country's art world. accounting for

around 15 percent of global turnover. the british art market is ranked 3rd after china and the u. s. london is also the headquarters for emily ebbing house and the art loss register. the database for stolen antiques and works of art in its quest to find missing art and return it to its rightful owners. the company works with art dealer's insurance firms and international police investigators vasquez and that's a song session sat. this is a work we've had here for years that has still to be returned to its owner. anything i'm from us. we're in the van in deep style. it was the theft we worked with. the dutch police on ham diesel zagging m d t t. as i to come at, they took care of the perpetrator side who stole it while we're involved in the

objects himself and who it needs to go back to fact, take a look. the painting was stolen in the netherlands years ago. it too, has been documented in the art loss register, a record of missing art from all around the world. more than 30 years in the making me including works that were plundered during war and the colonial era. we hadn't yet st on the phase, even as a database now has around $700000.00 items that we're looking for on practically a daily basis. and we get new items every days. as of right now during the covered pandemic, there's not so much aunt being stolen, but clocks and jewelry. yes, we currently add between $5.50 objects a day, objected. so a moment. the stolen jewels from the green vault and dresden are also registered

in the database with each individual element accompanied by a photo and a detailed description. the precious items have yet to resurface. although ebbing house is confident, it will happen some day. and if it hasn't come, some objects hit the market incredibly quickly, which means been taken across the border or to via germany or switzerland and being immediately sought for coughed order or they stay put for a really long time and don't appear on the market until maybe 30 he is later my art lovers around the world. hope the items stolen from the dresden royal palace will eventually turn up perhaps with the help of the art loss register. but years after the heist, the jewels are still missing. the hope is they haven't been broken apart and sold off piece by piece. dresden police, along with private interested parties, set up

a special commission to find the jewels. if a gun i took good site this mind as i know mothers on from past experience. sometimes the state of vesta gators are successful, sometimes to private parties, for what matters for me is that they communicate with each other, not when it does when we're done, and that they need to work as one. instead of giving the perpetrators the feeling that they can just settle financially with the private side in that, so need not worry about committing a crime model. if my kindergarten, delaware does his trough talking, bigot, stressed in september 2021. the display case in the green vault has long been repaired, but the loss is still keenly felt. there are gaping holes in the exhibit where the jewels once were. lou private investigator joseph rash had offered 5000000 euros to buy back the stolen jewels. before long, he received an anonymous phone call from someone claiming to have them

as to the written one. mm hm. work. the 1st meeting was in hamburg hill from the old v. i won't say howlin on the slides of other in the 2nd one was here in budge for tao, where i was approached in the car parkway of impact that's always grown blue. so began the most difficult part, negotiating the handover. evidently yoseph crash was himself being watched by the criminals. the man told him to come to another location a few hours later in a remote wooded area. yep, nicky proctor frequent don't you can't say, can i see some my d. no way this, every clinic is broken. i deliberately parked my car in a way that i'm sure they can see him on my own hospital. so get packed as he does equal melina. i took my jacket off the show. i didn't have a phone or a wire here. good. either. you have to be completely open than to give off when the meeting, which took place in 2020, focused on how the exchange. what happened?

this asked up front for proof that they actually had the jewels. and i'm shoes on harvey, shown them to the conversation ended up lasting, less than a half an hour. and then he showed it to me, but just like attacked. the man had a photo up, one of the pieces with a current edition of a well known magazine of to type shift is st. front of the magazine. you could see his hand holding these jewels or does it was one photo the get the ta again into he was showing that he had the jewels in and out on the date was from august 2020 m. o. ghosts will towson spun sick. the private investigator was satisfied that the middleman did indeed have access to the green vall, jewels. the man would return them and collect $5000000.00 euros flesh than had to wait to be contacted again by the criminals,

with details on the exchange. but events then took a different turn november 2020 a year on from the dresden heist berlin. police carried out one of the biggest series of coordinated raids in the country's history. the operation involved over 1600 police officers searching 18 properties and arresting a number of suspects members of a notorious crime family. but while the authorities celebrated the arrests, there was still no sign of the jewels themselves. the man who had been contacting joseph vash, went silent, and gosh, decided to change his strategy and turn up the pressure. the 5000000 euro ransom was now up for grabs for any one, providing information, leading to the jewels. the fulfillment cons either because he and the 5000000 could be collected by any person who had a solid tip off one that led to

a successful outcome. didn't image present, invest skipped or december foot ah, but there was no response either from the thieves or any one with insider knowledge . the priceless dresden jewelry was still missing. the buddha museum in berlin. part of a group of galleries known as museum island, a world heritage site. it houses a diverse collection of sculptures, medals, and coins passage from via ignore. it really is a phenomenal collection notation by the idea for displaying everything. one place came from vill him from boda, who was one of the 1st directors of the berlin museums yard has commanded because the kaiser and the state museums had a long history of collect and coin seen that includes a lot of precious items made of gold as well, it's yours most quoted in 2010, the bowden museum. welcome to very special edition to its collection. a big maple leaf, the largest coin in the world,

weighing in at 100 kilos of pure gold worth more than 4000000 euros on loan from a private owner in diesel door. the huge coin quickly became a major visitor. attraction. the spouse from the prestige item for the bowden museum has was unrivalled with just 7 of them in the entire world and been far too expensive for a public museum to actually buy he lives so they must have been delighted to get it as a loan regard. to the big may believe spent 7 years on display at the boat museum, it's sheer size and financial value gave the coin an irresistible appeal. and not just for art lovers. some boys at 3 a. m. 3 young men came up the stairs at the half ish remarked station just over there, and i'm with no trains running at that time of night on foot. there was no risk of dropping down on to the truck's last bit of an inch diag. and from there, it was just a couple minutes walk to the boat,

a museum. this is footage from the train station security cameras, which shows 3 men walking down the platform. clearly intent on keeping their faces hidden. it as is, it's a force and from there they went across to railway bridge, right in between the boat, a museum, and the pair g, a mom museum with this program and williams in buying them. and after putting up a letter had the light and they were able to enter via a window that had no alarm, no security, and wasn't covered by a camera hoisted buffer. i thought i'm starting. the key to entry was the remains of a bridge that used to connect the 2 museums a protrusion. the thieves made the most of with a letter the window had no security alarm, and behind it, a staff room. the thieves made their way about a 100 meters through the building before reaching their goal. the biggest gold coin on the planet to be t. livonia switzer to the display case wasn't hard to break

open. instead, they threw everything at the window thinking it had all be melted down anyway, it wasn't often they then took the same way back via that bridge to this park and then made their get away in a car of all sorts of who them all to the from a classic heist. but how could petty thieves sees the biggest and most valuable coin on the planet? his shirts larger than indoor chosen is not v sherman museums have then, as now a pretty pathetic security set of queen of it, whether it's the boat, a museum of the green vault and dresden shots taken the investment in deterrent measures as shockingly lowell and others of texas, that there was another case with the museum ireland, where someone's sprayed oil and exhibits refreshments were just a handful of commerce for the food. so hardly state of the art. but this does the state of the art moon security failures that have one particular man shaking his

head, boris foxman and the 75 year old dusseldorf art collector is the rightful owner of the now famous gold coin. with inside. and it's something you grow to love and is part of the family for him to, for me, proud possession them. and what starts with mother though, if her war been hugged childrens a part of my heart is missing, as we say, a major item in my collection, a bigger than mine, his own foxman is the son of an art and an stealer. he developed a special relationship to art at an early age. today, he possesses a collection that he's reluctant to show on camera for security reasons. foxman bought the coin for around 3 and a half 1000000 euros back in 2010. not long after he was contacted by the boda museum, the curators were preparing an exhibition called gold giants,

and hope to have his me belief as the highlight. the sharpness long. you believe that i didn't hesitate long. i thought, yes, i'd love for people to be able to see the coin. this is such a rare object needs to be on display for the public will float and decipher them. his emotional pain is accompanied by financial loss. a berlin court ruled that security lapses meant his insurance only had to pay half the official value missing since 2017. the coin is something he doesn't expect to ever see again that the school? no, i don't think so. it's unlikely that it only fund morton her, only in my dreams are on t v and fortunately that ah berlin

police have dedicated a division of the force to our theft headed by renee a launch. his office could be mistaken for a gallery except all the works on display. here are forgeries. a laws also worked on the stolen gold coin case dna found at the crime lead investigators to a berlin based crime family. to wilmonson you helped us. mom is addison from you. we 1st had to take a close look at this family to work up the internal connections who were the big figures and what the dna told us is what a d, d and ashburn for, was a ha in the them clean the should. i was the basis for our enquiries and then we had a whole range of jobs. it stakeouts mit surveillance in preparing raids on your above a home on blight that ions. it's a forum in february 2020, a berlin court sentenced cousins vis um and act met remo to 4 and a half years in jail. the 2 men refused to comment on the whereabouts of the coin,

which was likely melted down. it's not just steve's trying to cash in on the booming art market. the evidence room at berlin police headquarters is brimming with seized forgeries, including the work of master forger. wolfgang bell touchy. a launch has learned how to spot a fake than when this fish cleanings with money. if you hold it up to the light, you can see a point where the camera is really thin due to rubbing off, which is very a typical for the artist in could slow death of guns. under luncheon, he worked completely different materials and the rubbed away canvas. always tells us that someone wants us to think it's an old canvas, f, up the show and out the line, bonbons, thought a launch is one of the world's leading art detectives and has come to understand why art is now such hot property, quincy south and into santas, art is an interesting medium that you can make

a lot of money. westcan quince looked olsh, but art also attract speculators, which is why there are so many fraud cases in the get up on my side. but for most perpetrators, there's also the special attraction. the challenge of stealing a world famous work of art with high security, his bus a live, it can fly dots who steal in whipped, or that's an incentive lights, or some d dunn's or she totten begin. in most cases, it's about stealing the object and then turning it into money. so kids ah, amsterdam, not only the dutch capital, but also one of europe's leading cultural centers. a city famed for its rich, artistic heritage. people flock to visit the galleries here most because they want to see the art but others because they want to steal it. ah, of i still something and all feel ashamed. i don't, i don't even apologize. everybody was. busy oh, was with him,

a neighborhood stole they stole caught radios, vice that it burglaries and that is nobody him and i was it i what are you doing? i'll tape durham talks, frankly, about his previous life as an art thief. he gained notoriety after successfully breaking into the cities. ben, go museum in 2002. i was walking past a museum and i looked at the ride in as a hey, was said on the roof and that, that's why i did it. it was the opportunity a window on the roof. the seasoned burglar had identified a weak spot. he then returned with an accomplice at night and left with 2 works by vincent and go. with the daring break in was headline news in the netherlands. it's something you have to understand you have to be in is a cultural or something. i know this is what i don't have. the feeling durham
