    I had never heard of an “art detective” before today, but that’s the coolest job title I’ve ever heard. It sounds very Indiana Jones-ey. (And yes, I understand it’s probably a lot of desk work)

      According to his Wikipedia page he actually earns his living as an art historian and art consultant. Recovering lost and stolen art is just a hobby… And that’s definitely pretty Indiana Jones-esque.
