A 51-page document released as part of the Jeffrey Epstein files appears to catalog the extensive private art collection of billionaire collector and former MoMA board chair Leon Black. The document, which lists works by masters from Michelangelo to Picasso under corporate entities linked to Black, reveals valuations and details of a collection largely kept from public view, including works held as promised gifts to major museums like MoMA and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

UK Museums Face Criticism For Collections Of Human Remains

A Guardian investigation revealed that 241 UK museums, universities, and councils collectively hold over 263,000 items of human remains, with at least 37,000 originating from overseas, including former British colonies. The Natural History Museum in London houses the largest collection of non-European remains, followed by the University of Cambridge and the British Museum. Records are often incomplete, with the origins of 16,000 items unconfirmed and many institutions unable to provide exact figures due to poor documentation.
