Returning the Parthenon Marbles for the legitimacy of the monument
Keri Douglas has written a great article about Dr Gary Vikan, the outgoing director of the Walters Art Museum & why he thinks the Parthenon Marbles should be returned to Athens.
His reason is simple – that it is all about the legitimacy of the monument. The sculptures belong to the monument & should be returned.
