Alice Procter examines the complex provenance of global museum collections, challenging traditional narratives that have long dominated art history. By analyzing the intersection of colonial expansion and institutional practice, the author provides a critical framework for understanding the ethical imperatives of restitution and the ongoing movement to decolonize cultural spaces.
