A Lost Artistic Masterpiece Resurfaces After 100 Years: the Washington Principles to Return Nazi-Looted Art


Listen Later

In this episode, Alex takes a break from politics to get into one of his passions — ART! It was reported over the last few days that a painting by Gustav Klimt, that had been lost since 1925 and assumed destroyed, had been found in Vienna. The painting is called “Portrait of Fräulein Lieser” and belonged to a wealthy Jewish family in Vienna.
