 More from the MuseumTour expert:
Wrapping art, history, archeology and politics into one captivating book, The Medici Conspiracy is a must read for anyone who ponders the mystery of from where our treasures have come. "You'll never again look at some lovely painted pot in a museum, with a case label which gives no more provenance than a few thousand square miles of the Ancient Near East, without a sharp stab of unease." - Art Quarterly Uncover the True Crimes and Conspiracies of the World of Art and Antiquities Written like a classic detective story, The Medici Conspiracy details the illicit journey of looted antiquities from Italy's tomb raiders to the world's greatest museums. Botched robberies, police chases, underground markets, famous trials, prison sentences…it's all here in a fascinating and vivid read you won't be able to put down. Hard to believe this is a true, ongoing investigation! Softcover; 407 pages. Award: Time Magazine Best Book of 2006.
