Provenance
Claimant's grandfather owned a classic art gallery and had a large private art collection in Vienna. After the Anschluss, the temporary Nazi administrator Robert Grehs was appointed to the gallery and later also to claimant’s grandfather’s private collection. With the permission of the Nazis, he sold eleven paintings from his private collection in November 1938 to finance the emigration of his daughters and sons-in-law. On May 12, 1939 the gallery was Aryanized by Hilde Attems and Maria Korb-Weidenheim (later Offermann).
