Dutch detective recovers stolen 15th-19th century archives, including UNESCO-listed VOC documents.
Dutch art detective Arthur Brand has recovered a trove of stolen documents from the 15th to 19th century, including UNESCO-listed archives from the Dutch East India Company (VOC).
These documents offer insights into the VOC's global trading and military activities during the Dutch "Golden Age," including the first meeting of VOC officials and logs from Admiral Michiel de Ruyter.
The archives, designated as UNESCO's "Memory of the World," were stolen from the Dutch National Archives in The Hague in 2015.
