    New York Court Awards Nazi-Looted Egon Schiele Painting To Heir Of Holocaust Victim (English)
    9 March 2025
    Natasha Gural
    Robert Owen Lehman Sr. — longtime head of the Lehman Brothers investment bank, and a racehorse owner, art collector, and philanthropist — in 1964 bought the small painting by Schiele, which he gave to his son Robert Owen Lehman Jr. as a holiday gift.The Lehman family owned the painting until 2016, when it was gifted to the Robert Owen Lehman Foundation, which tried to auction the painting at Christie’s. Christie’s, suspecting it may be Nazi-looted art, notified the heirs of Mayländer and Rieger. The Lehman Foundation filed the lawsuit, and after discovery, the case went to trial and the three parties presented evidence and expert witnesses. (English)
