The Getty Villa - Sculpture
Yes, most of these items are probably here under dubious conditions, but until the Italian Government collects them all, enjoy one of the greatest collections of Classical sculpture in the world.
Be sure to visit the "Getty Kouros" - the Getty paid $7 million in 1986 for it, and to this day there is great controversy over whether it's ancient or a forgery. http://www.getty.edu/museum/exhibitions/ Getty Kouros: http://www.getty.edu/art/gettyguide/artObjectDetails?artobj=12908
