a $250m Vermeer and the listing still says "no photo available
The FBI's online gallery of stolen art is missing its photos
The FBI's National Stolen Art File, started in 1979 as a paper system, now lists over 8,000 stolen paintings, sculptures and cultural objects in a searchable app for iOS and Android. Entries carry artist, dimensions and sometimes a photo, but many listings have no image or only a faint old one. Only items worth $5,000 or more qualify. The top listing is Vermeer's The Concert, taken from Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990 and valued at $250 million.
