In the fall of 2001, a young man admired a 400-year-old bugle on display at the Richard Wagner Museum in Switzerland, grabbed it, and placed it under his coat while no one looked. Then Stéphane Breitwieser walked out of the museum. From 1994 through 2001, he stole 239 pieces of art worth over $2 Billion. Stéphan was not just any thief. He was the greatest art thief of all time. In this episode, 12. The Greatest Art Thief of All Time, I speak with author Micheal Finkel.
