The Getty should perhaps now release the details of all McLendon's "gifts" to the Getty (including their previous collecting histories).
Here are some of the Athenian pots "donated" by him and identified by Jiri Frel in 1977 (I use Frel's list numbers) [in addition to the krater attributed to the Kleophrades painter, inv. 77.AE.11]:

its a shame that these people had to fund looting on an industrial scale just to lower their tax bill.in the uk tv celebrities have been villified for legal tax evasion schemes but compared to these guys they are angels.offcourse,gordon mclendon probably knew nothing ,or cared about the antiquities in question other than that they were lowering his tax liabillity,he was not a collector in the true sense of the word.real collectors,who do love the past do not gift masterpieces at least not while they are still breathing.the getty has to come clean on all this,i can see another scandal brewing.
kyri.
