Hybrid Exhibition talk: Portrait of Wally: Opening the floodgates for restitution, Shauna Isaac
Part of the Vienna Model of Radicalisation: Austria and the Shoah exhibition event series. One of the most significant cases of Nazi looting took place in 1998 when the Manhattan District Attorney seized Egon Schiele’s Portrait of Wally under the US stolen property act. This case captured the imagination of the public and changed the international conversation on restitution.
