The New York Senate Standing Committee on Cultural Affairs, Tourism, Parks and Recreation has unanimously endorsed Senate Bill No. S06794. The Committee was no doubt moved by yesterday’s sought-after Art Law Report endorsement. . . .
In all seriousness, this moves the bill forward for consideration by the full Senate, in an effort to enact significant legal protections for authenticators and art historians rendering opinions about authenticity.
