Abstract
Disputes and efforts to recover works of art, on the state and private levels, are important areas of legal activity. We can look at these legal disputes both from theoretical and practical points of view. The article deals with the issue of recovering from Great Britain the Parthenon marbles taken by Lord Elgin from Greece at the beginning of the 19th century. It is one of the longest disputes over works of art in modern Europe. The solution may not lie in the law in the strict sense, but perhaps in simpler foundations referring to the elementary morality on the basis of which this law was created.
