Charles Hill, who tracked down stolen masterpieces like The Scream, dies at 73

By HARRISON SMITH | The Washington Post | Published: March 12, 2021 On the morning of Feb. 12, 1994, a pair of thieves stole a ladder, smashed a second-floor window and made off with a masterpiece from the National Gallery in Oslo, grabbing Edvard Munch s 1893 painting The Scream and leaving behind a pile of broken glass, a pair of wire cutters and a postcard. The front of the card reproduced A Good Story, a painting by Norwegian artist Marit Walle showing three red-faced men howling with laughter. On the back was a message scrawled by one of the thieves: Thanks for the poor security. Security footage revealed that it took less than a minute for the thieves to complete their smash-and-grab, although one of the intruders had fallen down the 12-foot ladder on his first attempt to climb its steps. To get the bulky painting down to the street, he leaned out the window and slid the frame down the ladder s rails, into the hands of his accomplice.

ART HEIST MIXES MYSTERY, THEATER

ART HEIST MIXES MYSTERY, THEATER Oline H Cogdill There’s an art heist going around the country and insightful sleuths are needed to solve the crime. The Art Heist Experience is an interactive true-crime show inspired by the theft of 13 works of art worth $500 million from Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990. During the play, masked audience groups walk around the crime scene, interviewing “suspects,” then come the solution. Plenty of evidence and clues are scattered about, and, of course, a number of red herrings. Art Heist Experience combines two of my favorite things mysteries and live theater. And for those of us who desperately miss live theater, this is a start to getting back to it. As well as the theatrical experiences, the productions also are planned with safety in mind. Masks are required, the productions are, for the most part, outside and the new detectives are arranged in small groups of 10 or less.
