Getty Will Return 2 Greek Artifacts

Felch, J., and Frammolino, R. (2006) ‘Getty Will Return 2 Greek Artifacts’, Los Angeles Times, 11 July.

The J. Paul Getty Trust agreed Monday to return two antiquities that Greek authorities say were taken illegally from their country.

The move to repatriate a 4th century BC inscribed tombstone and a 5th century BC marble relief, both on display at the Getty Villa, comes two months after museum director Michael Brand visited Athens and promised to address a decade-old request by the Greek government for the return of four disputed objects in the Getty’s collection.
