Even before the actual robbery, the theft of this painting was the subject of a 1964 episode of The Alfred Hitchcock Hour called "Ten Minutes from Now". Following the real theft, the stolen painting has figured in TV and animated series as well as the novels An Object of Beauty (2010) by Steve Martin; The Medusa Plot (2011) by Gordon Korman; and The Collector (2023) by Daniel Silva. In addition, in Tracy Chevalier's historical novel Girl with a Pearl Earring (1999), Vermeer paints The Concert at the same time that he is painting Girl with a Pearl Earring, an event also portrayed in the 2003 film adaptation.
