10:47 pm
listen to this day. many paintings from your hand, a precious goose process on collection. a classified as lost and continues to search for them with the help of a little some and munich is concerned with more than their value out and fresh interest. and so, and if he's interested in his family history and what happened to his grandparents um, especially to his grandmother was smarter on effects. it's not what he asks himself, is a where have all these objects golf because i'm child of to look at the photos from that time. the total villainous, great villain dollar victories, which was furnished with beautiful objects of artem, oscar started. and where has all of his family history gone? does it come from? you didn't receive to complete
10:48 pm
a lifetime of pain and loss. this chinese put ahead was a quad in paris, an auctioned off by the national socialists and the images. and here we have that. i talk one old head items 2 and 666 acquired by the museum of acknowledging or quin . the school board 5 from from the bid was 500 hikes small. got them. i'm not too sure. and there's also an invoice to the museum of phonology about him called but later in the postwar period, during the rest of the teacher negotiations behind them. these and called for this head was apparently lost on, on and thus lockwood. and that was probably due to a clerical error in the rest of teaching records. i don't know where it was listed as an old heart. so when they looked through the record, they couldn't find the head in didn't conference before. they didn't have the head didn't actually disappear. at the end of 2020 it showed up on display in the form
10:49 pm
of museum is acknowledging and handbook now named monk. it should been on loosely stored in addition to the 80 years until it was broken out for an arctic suspicion. tribal seeing it for the 1st time to beautiful as because i think to be honest, i imagined it would be much smaller. sure. it's great to finally see it in real life and not just in picture to the now the long las boot ahead will finally be returned to your hand. appreciated skis is the or the museum was a very familiar with the name. so should ski because it had already returned 6 objects to its own off to the war,
10:50 pm
but not the boat to hit the chip from katrin climb through the museums attention to it. this con, plus the end of the object. it can happen that in these large depos objects, it for a very long time before they are brought in for a project. that's the way it works. and big museums, we all wish we could simply process it ourselves. but that's and illusions, and so as it would take too much time, it's a lifelong task yourself. it will cease to dish. you see, i don't buy that. no, it's an excuse. the simple with go to the federal republic of germany committed to caring out this research and the washington declaration. and so it's the responsibility of the state, including the cultural senator and hamburg, was in to ensure that there were adequate resources. also, providence research shown, 1st of all, they committed to this list and must honor this commitment to the stone. these are
10:51 pm
put face to move. i noticed the boat ahead was tracked down thanks to the joint efforts of caution chronicle and mock. it's the 1st piece in campbell's research projects to be returned the tech job. this was the issue is that the impossible can be made possible. obviously we can track down the looted belongings and we covered them for thousands of families. and people mentioned for quick ones to put you on this, and we're lucky here that mark is a public institution trip to so it is possible to find these items on us and sources and brokers which would probably be much more difficult to do if they were in private household site and we're trying to relax, fee of online, but this is the case of the missing email. no. the painting owned by the cop family. the grandson,
10:52 pm
painstakingly searches for more clues passed through many hands off to being port my casualty. last auction christy's the auction house also tried to sell it in vain . it was delivered there by a gallery in keels. eventually it was sold by austria to france, but nobody will say who has it now the when hunting. and there's, there's the impression that people are stonewalling, this information is not being laid out in the table. and the kinds of there is no transparency. whereas they only sharing this information after 4 or 56 inquiries, one that right away, like the know the wasn't the only work in the coff families collection. it also includes the author valuable paintings such as a yep, lensky, a clay, a role. today they
10:53 pm
a certain that all of these artworks will do to be honest restaurant, but from the historical research institute. fax and file is trying to reconstruct the cruise from umus paintings from the company to state that the keel gallery claims that it no longer has any documents that could share much on the matcher. as mine off how, from my experience with our dealer archives, i can't imagine that they threw away all their documents in 1980 and they don't have them anymore as an every art dealer knows that documentation is the be all and end all of their business. so you always know what you had the who you got it from and who you sold it to months my calls to do to yeah, i just make good tired things or why aren't they telling the truth and you go to the and then dustless talked issue of why are they trying to mislead us and to the time they shouldn't boost the suggest that the people involved knew that there was something wrong with how the painting that's being acquired, suppressing,
10:54 pm
don't touch actually show us like that the piece had been stolen. it's as linked to this day, most of the positions belong to the expelled jewish community, a missing minions of all, checks, everything that was due to them that they had hoped to take with them to begin, the new lives was sold off at options where anyone could get their hands on them. it's a 60 and task. tribal is working her way through mountains of files to funds and names of injured parties. as it gets finished after a little over a year of looking on this list. all. but i've read the letter and shift a gift of an unusual come. doesn't almost say so far. this is, that's approximately total $1700.00 names of victims from hom, board from the swedish and those homework. mackenzie, i must get a hold of them together like this and yeah, you can see i have completed just over half of the list and come on just as an
10:55 pm
investment the so my guess would be there's about $2700.00 names in total and then the lucid prophecy and the names of the victims will be published in a da suffice. only then can the owners and there is a certain declines where has the cox art collection gone? the grand son will keep searching as long as he can shop here and is often laguna to one test. initially i'm i said to myself who if a generation doesn't do this anymore? if i don't at least try to get to the bottom of this, nothing will happen. for this chapter if history will be buried forever, will vanish into oblivion on purpose of doing good and 5 for a belated search for justice. ketchel club will won't give up,
