AD reports: A landmark Nazi-era art restitution deal clears the path for returning a looted 18th‑century portrait to an heir, spotlighting the paper’s ongoing coverage of cultural restitution and the art world.
The Portrait of a Lady, looted from Jacques Goudstikker’s Dutch-Jewish collection during the 1940 invasion, has been identified in a Mar del Plata home. An agreement will return the painting to Marei von Saher, with Kadgien and Cortegoso avoiding trial and under supervision; funds will support Argentine hospitals. The case highlights a decades-long search for looted art and ongoing investigations into Nazi-era plunder.
