A $50 Million Will Battle

"A $50 million will battle that reads like a movie script, with claims of stolen masterpieces, smuggled art, a furtive meeting in Shanghai and old grievances…." Read all about it in Siblings Two Worlds Collide in War Over Chinese Art Trove, a NY Times report on the dizzying accusations and counterclaims surrounding the estate of C. C. Wang, the famed Chinese art scholar who died in 2003 at age 96.

exhibited at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1999-2000.
