It seems that another piece displayed in the exhibition, Glories of the Past, was seized from a NYC private collection in June 2021 (though the information has only just been made available). The object is an Apulian dinos attributed to the painter of Louvre MNB 1148 (Glories no. 128). The catalogue entry by Dietrich von Bothmer notes that the dinos 'has been broken into many fragments and repaired'. Who restored the piece?
This adds to the 14 other pieces from the exhibition that have been returned to Greece, Italy or Turkey.
I am grateful to Jason Felch for pointing me in the direction of the relevant Search Warrant.
