Exile

Episode 9: The Missing Maidens


Listen Later

In 1933, Nazis steal the art collection of a prominent German-Jewish publishing family, the Mosses. Decades after the war, the family is still trying to do what they can to get it back. But a beloved sculpture, the Three Dancing Maidens, is still missing…and it might be hiding in plain sight. 

The LBI Library and Archives contain extensive materials on generations of the Mosse family and their legacy in Germany and beyond. They include personal papers of the publisher and philanthropist Rudolf Mosse and other Mosse family members. One of the Mosse newspapers - the CV Zeitung has been digitized in partnership with the University of Frankfurt. Learn more at www.lbi.org/mosse
