“Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz was a remarkable woman who has influenced generations of thinkers and writers,” said District Attorney Bragg.

“A single piece stolen from any country is one too many,” said District Attorney Bragg. “The historical, artistic, and cultural values attached to the Durga Stele are immeasurable, and I am pleased it is being returned to the people of Nepal”

“Though the pieces being repatriated today have a written price tag of millions of dollars, the historical, artistic, and cultural values attached to each of the relics are immeasurable and priceless. These artifacts deserve a place in their homeland, where the people of Italy can jointly appreciate the marvels of their country’s past,” said District Attorney Bragg

“This book was literally ripped from its original binding and sold for profit, and we are pleased to return it to where it rightfully belongs,” said District Attorney Bragg.

“These are more than just beautiful artifacts – they are windows into thousands of years of culture and deserve to be returned to their country of origin,” said District Attorney Bragg.
