More important than 1000 paints of this is to be alive after the holocaust.

The bringing of it to the nazis saved their family......
2. Keep it in the museum, it is not a private property any more
Michael ,   California, USA   (12.26.18)
People can see it in a museum, not in private hands. Stop grabbing public property, stop being greedy.
3. In addition 2 their lives they want the painting too!?
(12.26.18)
Wow! Is there no end to avarice and giving Jews a bad name for the sake of money?
4. The family deserve the painting back
Sam ,   nbi   (12.27.18)
The Germans forced so many Jews to relinquish their valuables in place for their lives. That was theft and extortion. The property was acquired illegally. Many of them were murdered even after providing gold, valuable paintings etc to buy their freedom. The museum should do the right thing and return this to the family. No German museum would refuse to hand over a stolen Nazi art. They would be savaged. But the museum is Spanish so they feel they can skirt around this
5. The painting should be returned.
Nona Yobizniz ,   Marfa   (12.27.18)
She had no choice. Only someone who hates Jews would say otherwise. And I hope one day you find out firsthand what she was running from. Dick.
6. They Traded It For Safe Passage, They Forfeited Ownership
World Citizen ,   the world   (12.30.18)
And the museum bought it fair and square. Just because you're Jewish doesn't mean you get to go back on every deal you make.
