In 1961, Kempton Bunton, a 60-year-old taxi driver, stole Francisco de Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London. It was the first (and remains the only) theft in the gallery's history. Kempton sent ransom notes saying that he would return the painting on condition that the government invested more in the care of the elderly. What happened next became a legendary event.
