Hi lovelies!

This Sunday we explore the final part (for now) in my series on WWII Art Restitution: The Story of the Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I. This episode is incredibly important to me because Adele's story, and the story of her niece Maria Altmann, is so indicative of the necessity for cultural property restitution. I wanted to highlight both of these amazing women and the strides each made to maintain their family legacy. I hope you enjoy this journey with me and that learning about Adele and Maria gives you a new perspective on the need for art restitution as a whole.
