A woman pulled a wrapped panel painting from a drainage culvert at 4:47 a.m. on April 3, 2009, soaked through but not muddy - a detail that would unravel a cross-border art swap involving a $4.3 million loaned work. How did a nearly perfect forgery replace Clarence Addy’s Woman at the Millbrook Window amid forty-one meticulously tracked crates without anyone noticing the night cameras went dark?
In this episode, we lay out the sequence of events from the Denver packing on March 28 to the Montreal opening on April 4, following the painting’s undocumented overnight transit and the registrar’s clean condition report. What small mistake in the forgery exposed the switch, and why did the blanketing detail in a culvert become central to the case?
