In 1961, Kempton Bunton, a 60 year old taxi driver, stoIe Goya’s portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the NationaI Gallery in London. lt was the first (and remains the onIy) theft in the Gallery’s history.
Kempton sent ransom notes saying that he wouId return the painting on condition that the government invested more in care for the elderly - he had Iong campaigned for pensioners to receive free television.
What happened next became the stuff of legend. OnIy 50 years Iater did the full story emerge - Kempton had spun a web of lies. The onIy truth was that he was a good man, determined to change the world and save his marriage - how and why he used the Duke to achieve that is a wonderfulIy uplifting taIe. |
