Finally: I see reporting that says that the items stolen from the BM are possibly worth "tens of millions of pounds". I find that to be unlikely:

1. Most Roman etc gems on the market are in the few thousand range. Just because a gem is in the BM doesn't mean it is valuable.

2. A piece stolen from a museum has an actual value of zero. NO ONE wants to buy something stolen from a museum. They only have value if the BM is the one selling them.

The Roman bust is in the news again b/c it returns home to Germany next month. We love that this article addresses the fact that title does not pass after a theft. When an object is looted, title remains w/ the rightful owner.

In Vermont, a School and Artist Fight Over Murals of Slavery: Created to depict the brutality of enslavement, the works are seen by some as offensive. The school wants them permanently covered.

When artworks are restituted, their provenances contains valuable information for researchers, historians and families.

Celebs are just like us! Well, they're like other collectors- they sometimes (unintentionally or perhaps w/ insufficient due diligence) buy stolen art. Madonna has a looted painting in her collection. Our blog post digs into this issue. artandiplawfirm.com/madonna/

I'm Matthew! I'm an architect who assists with campaigns for return of the Parthenon Sculptures (AKA Elgin Marbles) to Greece - but my interest extends to all forms of cultural property disputes & looting of ancient artefacts - plus a fair bit of ancient Greek history too.

I blog at: elginism.com/ but not nearly as often as I want to.

Hello Mastodon. My introductory post. I am a lawyer and author in the world. I live in and am far too old and untalented to be enjoying football with as much as I do. My interests are backcountry and - particularly and . Iā€™m hoping Mastodon will be a place for tolerance, debate and discussion rather than the place that Twitter has become.

Did you know there is an card game modeled on the decisions of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the PCIJ and the PCA? This is wild: jeutner.com/international-game

It's called the "International Game of Justice" and is made by Valentin Jeutner. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems like a good Christmas/holiday/whenever present for your favorite law geeks.
