Jessica Fuentes speaks with art educator and author Laura Evans about her recently published book, “The Atlas of Art Crime: Thefts, Vandalism, and Forgeries.” “I remember learning about the 1990 Isabella Stewart Gardner theft… and then going to visit the museum in grad school and confronting those empty frames, where those works of art were stolen from, was really sobering. Seeing these holes, these gaps, where these artworks were disappeared… it gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.” Related Readings: https://glasstire.com/2025/05/18/art-dirt-theft-vandalism-forgeries-talking-with-laura-evans-about-art-crime If you enjoy Glasstire and would like to support our work, please consider donating.

On this episode, we continue our visit to Mount Auburn Cemetery. Joined by biographer Natalie Dykstra, we visit the Gardner tomb where Isabella Stewart Gardner is buried. We learn more about Gardner and her family's relationship to the history of Boston from Dykstra and Chief Historian Peter Drummey. Mount Auburn is the first American cemetery that purposely combined commemoration with elements of experimental gardening, picturesque landscape design, and access to nature, starting a trend across the nation in the mid-19th century that led to the creation of the first public parks in this country.

In 1990, on Saint Patrick's Day, two thieves posing as police officers pulled off the biggest art heist in history, stealing 13 priceless works from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. Decades later, the crime remains unsolved. Who took the art, and where is it now?We're telling this story tonight.
In 1990, millions of dollars worth of art was robbed from Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner museum. The crime remains unsolved but provides a backdrop for ANY DAY NOW to explore a story of an insecure 20-something to learn the value of self-respect and the confidence that comes with exercising such respect.Steve (Taylor Gray) is the 20-something in question and he, by all metrics, should be cool. He's good-looking with a healthy beard. He's a guitarist for a band who's earned major-label interest. He works as a night shift guard for the museum, getting paid to absorb the work of hundreds of artists every night, all to himself. No one's robbing museums like gas stations; it's a quiet gig. But Steve's Achilles heel is that he's simply a doormat. He pines for his roommate/bandmate's girlfriend. Said roommate is months behind on rent and Steve's lack of spine makes this guy comfortable with blowing off any conversation about it. Steve's boss punks him for swiping a candy bar from the vending machine (which in most cases, is owned by an independent entity and therefore, out of this guy's jurisdiction, so fuck off, copper).But it's when art thief Marty Lyons (Paul Guilfoyle) approaches Steve in a bar with a proposition to cut him in on the profits of a robbery if he'll look the other way that Steve's prospects start to change. Marty does what he wants, with no qualms or boss to answer to. He loves art, music, a good time. He's lived three lifetimes' worth and ends up taking Steve on as a mentee. I mean, sure, he's a guy who robs museums and sells the art on the market, but is that really worse than living an entire life as an unsatisfied guy without the courage to spend his remaining days on this floating rock in pursuit of what he values and desires? Life's too short to waste it for other people.---Please rate, review & subscribe to The Movies wherever you listen to your podcasts!Follow The Movies on Instagram & Bluesky: linktr.ee/themovies_pod
I interview Paul Guilfoyle, star of the new coming-of-age-meets-heist-film ANY DAY NOW about his relationship to Boston as one of its sons, the Dropkick Murphys, classism, the eternal struggle of discovering (or uncovering) one's authentic self & the delicate balance of being both vulnerable and tough on screen.In ANY DAY NOW, Guilfoyle plays art thief Marty Lyons. In his plan to rob Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner museum (which is based off of a real though unsolved 1990 robbery), he marks 20-something night watchman Steve (Taylor Gray) as his potential inside man. What starts as strategy evolves into a mentor relationship as Marty's bold pursuits for what he desires allows Steve to build the confidence needed to abandon his identity as a professional doormat.Guilfoyle brings the comedy, intensity and wisdom to ANY DAY NOW, making for an equally entertaining and thoughtful character study masked in heist film tropes. ---Please rate, review & subscribe to The Movies wherever you listen to your podcasts!Follow The Movies on Instagram & Bluesky: linktr.ee/themovies_pod

I love to travel and discover new places. When my dear friend took me to the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum, I was in awe. Then I heard about the heist that happened where 500 million dollars of art was stolen! I will share that story with you in this podcast and the key lessons I learned by Isabella Stewart Gardner.

When in Boston, make sure you include a visit to ‘The Gardner' as it is known locally. Conveniently situated on ‘The Fenway', close to the MFA and the Back Bay area. It is a remarkable building and an extraordinary collection formed at the dawn of the era when Americans collected European art, and in the process created something entirely personal, new and exciting. I met with Nathaniel Silver, Associate Director and Chief Curator at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, at Fenway Court, to discuss his own journey through the history of art collecting in America and the UK, and to hear about how Isabella Stewart Gardner formed and lived with her remarkable art collection, in her spectacular Venetian-style palazzo in Boston, Fenway Court.

Rubens:Rembrandt:Soissons cathedral:Titian:After the spectacular opening of Fenway Court in 1903, Charles Eliot Norton, the Harvard art historian and friend of Mrs Gardner, wrote “Palace and Gallery (there is no other word for it) are such an exhibition of the genius of a woman of wealth as never seen before. The building, of which she is the sole architect, is admirably designed. I know of no private collection in Europe which compares with this in the uniform level of the works it contains.” N. Silver and D. S. Greenwald, Isabella Stewart Gardner - A Life, 2022, p. 106.Nat referred to three collections he likes to visit - all of which must have served as inspiration for Mrs Gardner's collections and their display in Boston.Nat's chosen work is Pesellino's, Story of David and Goliath, which with its pair, The Triumph of David, was included in the (very beautiful) recent exhibition at the National Gallery (December 2023-March 2024). Both panels may have been painted as decorative panels for the front of (two) marriage cassone. Prior to the exhibition's opening, the panels were conserved at the National Gallery. The restorer Jill Dunkerton discussed their restoration here on The Art Newspaper's podcast - (interview starts at 42:08).See also The Isabella Stewart Gardner museum on Google Arts and Culture Thanks for reading Ornament !

Going back to the revenue drivers and the business pain points that you're going to help solve, whether it's monetizing your data directly or using data as an enablement function to actually help in other areas and so I think getting the organization to understand that data is a product of the business and then sort of working back from there into what does that specifically mean.”- Colleen Tartow Interested in joining an ELC Peer Group?ELCs Peer Groups provide a virtual, curated, and ongoing peer learning opportunity to help you navigate the unknown, uncover solutions and accelerate your learning with a small group of trusted peers.Apply to join a peer group HERE: sfelc.com/peerGroupsSHOW NOTES:Colleen's experience building a data program from scratch (2:25)What it used to be like building a data engineering team (4:43)Narrowing to first principles when hiring for / building a data eng team (6:44)Frameworks to advocate for more resources to build your org's data function (7:53)Knowing when you need to transition your data side project to a full data program (10:11)Building data teams from a zero to one perspective (13:05)What “onboarding as discovery” conversations look like (14:38)Joining an existing team to implement a defined data-focused function (16:14)How to have effective conversations & collaborate with other eng functions (19:19)Prioritization strategies when refocusing / creating the data eng org roadmap (21:20)How to integrate cross-functional partners into the data eng planning process (22:51)The implication of AI on data teams & its intersection with eng teams (24:09)Colleen's decision-making framework (27:54)Recommendations for tackling complex data pipelines in different ways (29:27)Navigating the paradigm of AI & data eng's impact on other eng orgs (31:31)What the ideal collaboration between data & eng looks like (34:01)Recommendations for dealing with points of friction (35:21)Steps for aligning data & eng under the same goals (37:16)Rapid fire questions (39:04)LINKS AND RESOURCESThe Lioness of Boston - Emily Franklin's deeply evocative novel of the life of Isabella Stewart Gardner, a daring visionary who created an inimitable legacy in American art and transformed the city of Boston itself.This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/

Thousands walk through her home-turned-museum every year, but do we really know who Isabella Stewart Gardner was? A fresh look at her life reveals that we may be remembering her for the wrong things.
Isabella Stewart Gardner was a consummate collector, generous philanthropist, and rabid Red Sox fan. Today, she's best known as the namesake of an art museum in Boston's Fenway neighborhood (and if we're being honest, the museum is probably best known for a famous 1990 heist). This week, Jake interviews author Emily Franklin, whose new novel The Lioness of Boston explores the person behind the Gardner fortune. They discuss the great romance, tragedy, and scandal of Isabella's life, the different personas she tried on throughout different eras of her life, and her obsession with the idea of a legacy. Emily will tell us why Boston at first turned up its nose at wealthy young Isabella, but later came to embrace the flamboyant and eccentric Mrs Jack as one of our most colorful and generous characters. Emily will also describe what makes historical fiction different from biography, and the freedom and limitations that the genre brings.

Venice by the end of the 19th century had lost much of the glory it once had known. Crumbling palazzi, a bad economy and an overall sense of decay permeated the city. New writings published on the long-forgotten Venetian Renaissance painters and artists brought a new stream of visitors to the city including Henry James, John Singer Sargent and James McNeill Whistler among others. American expatriate art connoisseurs such as Daniel and Ariana Curtis and the great Isabella Stewart Gardner all made Venice home for a time. Much of the activity centered around the majestic Palazzo Barbaro on the Grand Canal which the Curtises bought, becoming the scene of much entertaining and socializing among artists. This episode takes a look at what the city meant to James on his many visits since his first in 1869 to his last in 1907. In addition, the show considers what it meant to other artists and how they interpreted it amidst a fascinating, eccentric, educated community of people flowing into the city. We will also take a look at the two great works in which James captured the city and this community, The Aspern Papers (1888) and The Wings of the Dove (1902).

In just 81 minutes, the thieves stole over $600 MILLION worth of historic art. Valued at over $200 million at the time. The Gardner Museum heist remains the biggest art theft in the world - and the biggest private property theft in US history if not in the history of world. Thirty-three years later, the case still remains unsolved. So who stole thirteen very valuable works of art? Where are they now? All of this and so much more in a unique, true crime edition of Timesuck. Want to apply for the Cummins Family Scholarship fund? The application process opens on MARCH 6TH, 2023.

I think one of the most well known museums in Boston is the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. The museum itself was built with the guidance of Isabella Stewart Gardner, the art collector, because she wanted a place for her personal art collection. The museum opened to the public in 1903, and Gardner continued to expand the collection and arrange it until she died in 1924. She left the museum with a $3.6 million endowment when she passed away and her will basically said that the arrangement of the artwork should not be altered and no items were to be sold or bought into the collection. If you go to the museum today, you'll see the empty frames of where the stolen paintings used to hang. Join us today for the story behind one of the most notorious heists in Boston history… Stay safe out there.

XXXVII. Isabella Stewart Gardner (1840-1924) was a member of Boston's Brahmin society during the Gilded Age. A philanthropist and passionate art collector, she created her very own museum she called Fenway Court which opened to the public in 1903. Her museum, now called the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, resembles a Venetian-style palazzo and rises above Boston's Fens, and showcases objects and art from the classical world to the 20th century, all displayed today just as she laid them out herself. Gardner was considered eccentric in her public behavior and the press eagerly reported on her latest moves, but what we do know of her inner life and love of art -- and her deep desire that the public could see it, too -- is the focus of this episode. Diana Seave Greenwald, interim curator of the collection at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum joins The Gilded Gentleman for a talk about "Isabella Stewart Gardner: A Life", the new biography that she co-wrote. We take a look at just who this deeply fascinating woman of the Gilded Age really was, and how she built her museum that was left, as she wished, for us all to see today.
Jessica Machado fills in for Grace to talk the Ana Walshe missing person case as well as her convicted criminal husband's art fraud. Jessica is joined by former candidate for state auditor Anthony Amore, who investigates the Isabella Stewart Gardner art heist of 1990. Amore also had some run-ins with the MassGOP last year, a group Jessica feels passionately about.
The biography explores the origins of the Gardners' wealth.
We also dive into a new book unpacking the mysterious life of Isabella Stewart Gardner.
On St. Patrick's Day weekend in 1990, two thieves disguised as police officers broke into Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and stole 13 works of art, ranging from a Vermeer masterpiece to a decorative eagle. By dawn the next morning, the thieves and the art had vanished, and clues were few and far between. In the thirty-odd years since the theft, not one piece has been recovered, despite a $10 million reward. Sources include: "The Gardner Heist" by U.

We are still on a break from the Bachelor but connecting our stories to the franchise. We are already looking forward to Bachelor in Paradise this season, and Megan bases her story this week on someone we are very likely to see on the sand, Genevieve Parisi. Genevieve is from Massachusetts, now living in Southern California. The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, in Boston, Massachusetts, is the home of the vast personal art collection of Isabella Stewart Gardner. Over St. Patrick's Day weekend of 1990, thirteen pieces of art were stolen and this heist was the highest value museum heist for 29 years.
