In a Surprise Ruling, a Dutch Court Said the Stedelijk Can Keep a Kandinsky That a Jewish Family Says Was Sold Under Duress

A court in Amsterdam has ruled that Wassily Kandinsky’s
Bild mit Häusern (1909), which was claimed by the heirs of a Jewish man to which it belonged before the Second World War, can remain in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum.

Kandinsky’s
Painting With Houses was sold in October 1940, possibly by Lewenstein’s son Robert or his wife. Robert Lewenstein emigrated to France in 1939 and then fled to the US in 1940 to escape the Nazis. But although the painting was sold after the occupation of the Netherlands by German troops, the Restitutions Committee determined that it could not definitively be classified as a sale resulting from Nazi persecution. ....
