On Monday January 18 the trial to claim back the wall paintings of the monastery of Sijena, Aragon in Spain began. The paintings are actually in the "Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya" at Barcelona and were taken there after a big fire at the monastery at the beginning of the Civil War. Our counsel Abel Garriga defends the interests of the Museu d' Art de Catalunya (MNAC ) against the claim of the paintings of the Monastery of Santa Maria de Sijena filed by the Community of Aragon.
