Christie's Ignores Italy?
Christie's still seems to be planning to auction the pair of Canosan kraters identified by Christos Tsirogiannis from the Medici Dossier. Has Christie's received requests from the Italian authorities to withdraw the kraters from the sale? Is Christie's ignoring such requests?
Such an attitude seems to follow a pattern for this auction-house.
