so what wonderful news this is!
Looted Klimts returned to owner
Paintings by Gustav Klimt are on their way to the US from a Vienna museum following more than 60 years after they were looted by Nazis in World War II.
The five pictures, worth at least $100m (£59m), will be returned to Maria Altmann, the niece of a former factory owner who had his possessions seized.
Among the pictures are two famous portraits of Adele Bloch-Bauer. ................

Klimpt is one of my favorites too. I have a print of "Signora con Ventaglio" that I wake up to every morning. Finally, some good news for a change.
Must be 'Return The Art' week. I see the cops showed up during a board meeting of some bank in the Netherlands bearing a Van Gogh that had been stolen from them 15 years ago.
