Spain always gets to keep the loot look at all the shipwrecks they've claimed that they stoled in the first place
But what has this got to do with the US?
Sue in Spain how can California override another country’s laws.
The painting were stolen from the Germans through hyperinflation. The question is, who owned the paintings before WW1?
why is the painting worth millions?
he's stunned not to get the painting returned (big money) while for 75 years people lose their families' lands. Is this a double standard?
That's horrible and it should be given back to he rightful owners.
Patel is charging the painting rent
😳
Indiana Jones would have said, "It belongs in a museum!"
They knew its progeny, they knew it came through the history of WWII and that means they know!
Disgusting.
Spanish were always pirates.
My question in these cases is this.
Would these families be spending thousands of dollars and years of their lives to get back a painting if it was only worth $100.00?
Disgusting
Man, at the very least the museum could pay the family back for it, even if they still want to keep the painting.
In unrelated news, I now know where to launder stolen art.
Spain Columbia Puerto Rico Brazil Argentina Mexico Venezuelian Return ….. Iran control policing network #Flashpoint
It's obvious the museum knew about the origins.
Spain is in the wrong here.
Ouch.
ok he wants the money, force the museum to buy it
well, what do you expect from the country which so enthusiastically killed jews in the inquisition….
In the very week an international court is arguing with Israel about its right to continue their search for 136 hostages a US court tells a family that their stolen artwork can not be given back. It would seem when it comes to Jewish lives or Jewish art, the world is not really interested in protecting them.
The case needs to be in the Hague or a international court. Wrong jurisdiction and the California court was CORRECT.
