A single deliberate smear of white gesso on a security camera lens turned a quiet February morning into the first visible crack in a three-year art theft scheme. The painting found propped against a rear service door contradicted the museum's digital log that said it had remained inside all night-so how did a locked object end up in an alley?
In this episode, we follow the sequence of discoveries that linked a small physical mark to people, invoices, and a studio south of Indianapolis. The episode covers the initial find, the evidence on the camera lens, and the procurement records that refused to make sense-could a conservator’s ledger reveal conspirators?
