Comments | "This week's restitution ceremony was "entirely atypical" says Epstein, because its two Dutch Masters paintings were returned thanks to unprecedented co-operation of two auction houses: Metz in Heidelberg and Stahl in Hamburg. In part this is because the German art trade is shadowing the lead of international auction houses Sotheby's and Christie's, which realized more than a decade ago that selling objects with a tainted provenance is ethically questionable and a potential public-relations disaster." |
