From the hallowed halls of the British Museum to the digital archives of the innovative Museum of Looted Antiquities, a revolution in cultural repatriation is quietly unfolding. This essay takes readers on a journey from a thought-provoking conversation with renowned Indian historian K.N. Panikkar to the cutting-edge efforts of online platforms documenting the return of stolen artifacts. As we explore the complex web of acquisition, smuggling, and repatriation, we uncover not just the stories of priceless objects, but also the evolving narrative of how we perceive and preserve our global cultural legacy. In a world where the lines between preservation and appropriation blur, this exploration challenges us to reconsider the role of museums and the true meaning of cultural stewardship in the 21st century.

The Indian journalist, who had to be evacuated from Afghanistan when the Taliban first took over, has since returned, and has resumed her efforts of documenting the country. On her Instagram handle, lifeoutside2by2, she fearlessly interviews and photographs Taliban soldiers, bringing out both the cruelty and humanity in their stories. A snapshot of a man who has been taught to believe that “making landmines is holier than fighting" is juxtaposed with one of two friends - one of whom used to be in the National Army and the other, a hardened Taliban, who joined when an American drone strike killed seven of his family members on a single day. Today, the two friends, who have both joined the regime, reminisce about having fought on different sides.

This allows the photographers and videographers to rapidly change the filters and take the shot as desired without missing any details. Also, the same filters could be used with different lenses by using magnetic adapters, which will significantly reduce the cost and saves the space for carrying multiple filters.

Rahman says it is by another coincidence that they landed in India as a collector managed to buy some of them. “The timing of the exhibition coincides with the 75th anniversary of Independence. At a time when the BJP is trying to demolish Nehru’s legacy and spreading the narrative of ‘Make In India’, Janah’s works assume significance as the ‘Make In India’ started in the 1950s. That is why it is so important that people see these pictures. We should not forget this history and the BJP is trying to make us forget it.” Apart from their historical significance, these are stunning images, says Rahman. “That was a time of great hope. Now, we have a different view about industries. We perceive industries as polluting, but at that time we needed all these factories because we needed indigenous manufacturing. Also, they provided jobs to lakhs of people, particularly in backward areas. There was a great positive energy which actually can be felt in Janah’s photographs.”

And in a matter of few years, she was on her first 120 feet underwater excavation assignment close to Sedana island Sadana Island in Red Sea, documenting an eighteenth-century ship wreck.

His work is held in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In his early works, Narahara focused on people who were living in isolation from the everyday world, such as monks in a Trappist monastery or the inmates of a women’s prison. Walking a tightrope between description and abstraction, objectivity and a personal narrative, Narahara transcended the journalistic documentary photography then prevalent in Japan.

Vilakku is an integral feature in festivals like Onam in Kerala, Karthigai Deepam in Tamil Nadu, and Diwali across India. Lighting the Nilavilakku or Kutthuvilakku, as it is popularly known in the southernmost states of India, used to be a daily evening ritual until the recent past and is still so. The Lady with a Lamp painting by S L Haldankar, is a famous painting that captures the culture of lighting of lamps by ladies in the family.

The Italian photographer Giuseppe Cavalli had moved to Senigallia and was eager to form a club that would promote photography as art. In 1953 the Misa club was formed, with officers Cavalli as president and Giacomelli as treasurer. In 1956, Giacomelli joined the La Bussola group of photographers and then the national ANSA agency. He specialized in black-and-white land scenes, devising his own way of shooting, using the little-known Kobell Press camera.
