Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. When the Nazi regime swept into Austria, families were torn apart, lives were uprooted, and treasures of culture and history were seized without mercy. Among those who lost everything was Maria Altmann, a young woman who fled with her husband to escape persecution. They left behind not only their home and loved ones but also priceless works of art that had been in the family for generations.For decades, those paintings-most famously Gustav Klimt's Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I-hung in museums, celebrated as masterpieces while their rightful owners lived in exile. Altmann built a life in the United States, far from Vienna, but the memory of what had been taken never faded.Years later, against great odds, she began a legal battle that would reach the highest courts. Her fight was not only for her family's art but also for justice itself. What unfolded was a landmark case that reshaped the way the world views looted cultural property and the rights of Holocaust survivors and their descendants.This biography tells the story of Maria Altmann's resilience: her escape, her determination, and her unwavering pursuit of fairness in the face of powerful opposition. It also sheds light on the larger struggle of countless survivors who sought to reclaim the lives, histories, and legacies stolen from them during one of history's darkest chapters.
