What first seemed like a sophisticated burglary by professionals, turned out to be the work of a few small-time Romanian criminals who had no idea what they were getting themselves into. They knew about house burglaries, not art, and they certainly didn't know about selling art.
This is the story of the Kunsthal robbery, based on the case files and conversations with those involved.
