Marei van Saher

Marei van Saher is a prominent Dutch art historian and advocate for the restitution of artwork looted during World War II. As the daughter-in-law of Jewish art dealer Jacques Goudstikker, she has dedicated years to reclaiming her family's extensive collection of stolen art, which includes works by masters such as Rembrandt and Vermeer. Her relentless pursuit for justice culminated in the return of over 200 pieces in 2006, yet many significant artworks remain missing. Recently, her efforts have been reignited by the discovery of a painting potentially linked to her late father-in-law's collection, which was revealed through a housing advertisement.
