Anja Shortland on EconTalk on why it's really hard to sell stolen art
/Shortland explains how a private database of stolen art, the Art Loss Register, has made the notoriously opaque art market a little less so.
Really enjoyable episode, featuring a James Bond-type character, freeports, “anonymous Russian institutions”, an allegedly authentic Turner, and because it’s an EconTalk episode, a reference to Adam Smith.
