When a lost Leonard Da Vinci painting gets purchased for just under $1200 at an auction in New Orleans, it isn't long before the painting takes the art world by storm and eventually sells for $450,000,000 - the highest price ever paid for a painting. But is everything as it appears?
In this episode, we look at the mystery behind the Salvatore Mundi, and the shadowy world of freeports and money laundering. The primary source for this episode is the new Sony Pictures Classics documentary "The Lost Leondardo" in theaters now.
Pete is joined by former CIA Field Officer Doug Patteson.
