Within three minutes, they had passed the works, valued at about €9 million ($10 million), to an accomplice and fled.
At the museum's main gate, a fourth man discharged a fire extinguisher when the alarm sounded, distracting the custodian.
"Whatever could go wrong, did," said Stefano Roffi, director of the private foundation that runs the museum.
