Italian officials are meeting with the director of the Metropolitan Museum today to discuss possible compromises over the issue of stolen art that may be in the Met’s collection. “At today’s meeting with the Met’s director, Philippe de Montebello, Italy is willing to negotiate on the fate of the more than 30 objects in question, said Maurizio Fiorilli, the ministry lawyer who is leading the Italian delegation. ‘It depends on the willingness of the Metropolitan’.”
