Austrian authorities are requesting that a museum give up a painting believed to have been stolen from its Jewish owner on the eve of World War II. The painting, “Wayward Shrine, Houses and Trees” by Egon Schiele, was taken from Henirich Riger, a Viennese man who died at Thereseinstadt in 1942.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
