This
series presents a selection of objects that have been
stolen from public collections or looted from archaeological
sites. Excerpts from the laws of the countries concerned
are also given to remind readers of the illicit nature
of any export of these objects. The publications also
serve to make known the institutions which, alongside
ICOM take action and implement ways of fighting the illicit
traffic in cultural property. This richly illustrated
of the book helps raise awareness and inform the public,
as well as its role of enabling verifications of objects.
Each issue contains extracts on acquisitions from ICOM's
Code
of Ethics for Museums.
DISTRIBUTION
All volumes of the "One Hundred Missing Objects"
series have been widely distributed to police
and customs authorities, museums, art dealers and auction
houses as well as other organisations combating the illicit
traffic in cultural property.
