History

Historical Context

In August 1911, Italian handyman Vincenzo Peruggia slipped into the Louvre on its summer-closure day and stole Leonardo da Vinci’s 30 cm × 21 cm Mona Lisa, sparking worldwide attention and new museum security practices. The theft’s legacy of heightened protection echoes in the August 9 2026 break-in at Kim Kardashian’s Hidden Hills estate, prompting the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to tighten celebrity-home security.
