Palm Beach Couple Sues Netherlands

The Goldsteins filed a claim with the Dutch government for millions of dollars' worth of artwork she says belonged to her father, a prominent Dutch art dealer who lost much of his collection during the Nazi occupation.

Sybilla Goldstein, along with two sisters and a brother who live in Europe, are seeking restitution for more than 200 pieces of art that originally belonged to their father, Nathan Katz

Netherlands Museum

Paintings show up in Stedelijk Museum in Leiden, Netherlands. The Goldsteins demanded the painting and the museum had the 'Gall' to laugh at them.

 

Nathan Katz

Nathan was the family patriach and a Jewish version of Schindler.

 
 

Nathan Bought His Mother Back From Nazis

Nathan, whose mother was in Westerbrook concentration camp, traded his Momma's life for a Rembrandt.  The officer planned to present it to Adolf Hitler as a birthday gift.

Herman Goering

The artworks of Katz and many other collectors, most of them Jewish, were intended to grace the Third Reich's museums as well as the private collections of Hitler and his henchmen.

Das Fuehrer Museum

The art was ultimately to be displayed in a grand "Fuehrer Museum." Hitler and Hermann Goering, his second-in-command, were art connoisseurs and systematically identified private and public collections to be confiscated for the Nazis' pleasure.
