概要
Left in the Alley: How a Master Forger Returned a Stolen Marsh

A stumbling discovery: a masterful 1887 Marsh painting left face-down in an alley, valued at $84,000, found by a meter reader who'd worked the block for eleven years - and the original frame still hung on the museum wall. Who took Hillside at Carver Creek, why was a near-perfect copy placed back, and how did the thief leave no alarm or badge trace to explain the swap?

In this episode, we follow the sequence of discoveries from the alley to the museum director's alarm checks, the badge log entry, and a conservator's locked studio with a full-scale reference photo pinned to the table. The episode traces how one badge-swipe pointed investigators to a contracted conservator and the questions that badge record could - or couldn't - answer.
