epstein files leon black antiquities smuggler douglas latchford 2746922

Newly released documents from the Jeffrey Epstein files suggest a direct link between billionaire collector Leon Black and the disgraced late antiquities dealer Douglas Latchford. An inventory titled "Leon Black/ Narrows South East Asian Art Inventory" found in Epstein’s emails lists 12 Southeast Asian works purchased by Black for $23.85 million. Among these is a $7 million bronze Shiva that matches the description of a piece featured in Latchford’s 2004 book, raising significant questions about the provenance of Black's collection.

Brighton & Hove Museums in southern England will return 45 artefacts to Botswana.

A team from Brighton & Hove Museums is working with Botswanan curators on the return, which is scheduled for April.
