The largest art heist in history occurred on March 18th, 1990 at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.
A total of 13 paintings worth $500M were stolen by two men posing as police officers.
Paintings by masters including Degas, Vermeer, Rembrandt and Manet were among those taken.
To this day the empty frames are still hanging, acting as placeholders until the pieces are returned.
