Overview
The story of the contrasting roles looted Benin Art plays across cultural divides of the West versus the people of Benin. Told through the lens of Prof Peju Layiwola, a descendant of Oba Ovaramwen Nogbaisi, who ruled over Benin during the British Punitive Expedition of 1897. It chronicles the pains of mass murder, the theft of items of cultural heritage, and the agitations of Orientalism.
