Additionally, a Florida family has filed a claim for $6.7 million in damages due to counterfeit Warhol artworks, along with a lawsuit involving over 200 forged pieces. Trump intends to place $84K signs at the Smithsonian to indicate perceived bias. Recent legislation has triggered new legal actions against museums concerning art looted by the Nazis.
