概要
A quiet corridor hid a theft that lasted 13 months: an $840,000 Caspar Olmstead oil was gone and replaced by a near-perfect hayfield canvas no one noticed. How did a real painting, a real frame, and five years of planning slip past a museum’s radar until a ceiling crawlspace revealed the lie?
In this episode, we trace the sequence of events, the people, and the gaps in museum security that allowed the swap to happen, and we ask how institutional blind spots enabled a theft that began years before anyone detected it.
Person: Keith Holmes
Person: Stephen Forde
Person: Randy Hunter
Work: Fenwick Inlet at Dusk
Appraisal value: $840,000
- The painting Fenwick Inlet at Dusk was last known to be missing in December 2017 and went unnoticed for 13 months.
- The canvas appraised in 2014 at $840,000 and attributed to Caspar Olmstead, circa 1872, oil on canvas, 34 x 48 inches.
- The museum’s east wing corridor lacked motion cameras after 2016 and remained unmonitored on the security grid.
- Randy Hunter purchased Untitled Pastoral Study No. 3 at an Ohio auction in 2015 as a replacement canvas sized to match the museum work.
- Stephen Forde left his conservation position in August 2018, ten months before the painting was discovered missing.
