Australia will return 14 artworks to India, including at least six believed to have been stolen or illegally exported.

This undated handout picture released by the National Gallery of Australia shows the historical group portrait of a Gujarati family.SYDNEY - Australia will return 14 artworks to India, including at least six believed to have been stolen or illegally exported, the National Gallery announced.

The collection is composed largely of"religious and cultural artefacts" worth a total of about US$2.2-million, including some dating back to the 12th century. "It's a relief that they can be returned to the Indian people, and it's a resolution for the National Gallery to close a very difficult chapter of our history," he said.

Mitzevich said it had introduced guidelines to assess any legal and ethical issues with works it holds, and was investigating three other sculptures from its Asia collection.
