520 The legendary names include Rothschild, Mendelssohn, Bloch
-Bauer—distinguished bankers, industrialists, diplomats,
and art collectors. Their diverse taste ranged from
manuscripts and musical instrushy;ments to paintings by
Old Masters and the avant-garde. But their stigma as Jews
in Nazi Germany and occupied Europe doomed them to exile
or death in Hitler’s concentration camps. Here, after
years of meticulous research, Melissa Müller (Anne Frank:
The Biography) and Monika Tatzkow (Nazi Looted Art)
present the tragic, compelling stories of 15 Jewish
collectors, the dispersal of their extraordinary
collections through forced sale and/or confiscation, and
the ongoing efforts of their heirs to recover their
inheritance. For every victory in the effort to return
these works to their rightful heirs, there are daunting
defeats and long court battles. This real-life legal
thriller follows works by Rembrandt, Klimt, Pissarro,
Kandinsky, and others.
