The Mona Lisa Vanishes

描述

這是一個真實故事，講述達文西的這幅傑作在從羅浮宮遭竊後，如何成為世界上最著名的繪畫。本書被《紐約時報》譽為「風趣的驚悚小說」，全書並配有黑白插圖。

The true story of how Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece became the most famous painting in the world after being stolen from the Louvre, written as a “witty thriller” (The New York Times) and featuring black-and-white illustrations throughout.

On a hot August day in Paris, just over a century ago, a desperate guard burst into the office of the director of the Louvre and shouted, La Joconde, c’est partie! The Mona Lisa, she’s gone!

No one knew who was behind the heist. Was it an international gang of thieves? Was it an art-hungry American millionaire? Was it the young Spanish painter Pablo Picasso, who was about to remake the very art of painting?
