Provenance: Although he never hid that he owned a good amount of real estate, in that sense he always kept a low profile. In addition, during Humberto Zúccaro's stewardship, he was very close to the remembered Marcelo Castillo, acting as private secretary ad honorem when the president of the HCD replaced the mayor on leave. The abundant breakfasts that Mantovani organized for the press every time his friend put on the costume of interim mayor are remembered. Passionate about art history, Omar Mantovani was also an avid collector, managing to gather a number of priceless pieces. Surnames such as Berni, Pettoruti, Spilimbergo and other great artists were listed in his collection. In fact, over time he shaped a personal museum that would be the envy of any city, according to those who had the privilege of touring the facilities. Shortly after noon yesterday, his remains began to be veiled at the Ponce de León funeral home, where friends, neighbors and patients of a person who endeared himself to all those who knew him passed by. The theft of the century. In November 2009, Omar Mantovani suffered the theft of 77 paintings, for a sum estimated at 4 million dollars. It was the largest theft of works of art in Argentine history, even greater than the assault suffered by the National Museum of Fine Arts. Interpol called it "the robbery of the century." After an investigation, the loot was recovered. The betrayer died in jail, and the masterminds were sentenced to 5 and 7 years in prison. The material authors of the robbery were never found. He died on Sunday, November 4, 2018, at the Mater Dei sanatorium in Buenos Aires, the victim of a serious illness, the doctor Omar Mantovani, a doctor from Pilar who throughout his life had several facets, including some very different from medicine. He was 68 years old, single and had no children. Owner of an outgoing personality and a specialist in issues related to nutrition, Mantovani was well known in the area and loved by his patients, including Diego Armando Maradona, who always had words of affection towards him
