概要
A lone birdwatcher with a telephoto lens accidentally revealed a duplicate of a four-hundred-and-twenty-thousand-dollar lithograph pressed against a museum window, creating a brief moment when two copies of the same artwork existed in one small Ohio city. How did Passage, Inverted number twelve vanish from the Hessler Museum without anyone noticing for years?
In this episode, we follow the timeline from the January 9, 2011 photograph to the provenance review that uncovered a single transposed word in condition reports and the transport driver tied to eight loans; the episode traces how those details opened the question of where the museum's copy went and why no one realized it was missing.
