Paul von Mendelssohn-Bartholdy

banker Germany

Paul von Mendelssohn-Bartholdy was a Jewish German banker and art collector, known for his extensive collection of modern art in the early 20th century, which included works by notable artists like Picasso. As a victim of Nazi persecution, he was forced to sell many artworks under duress, and his legacy is intertwined with ongoing discussions about art restitution in post-war Germany. His descendants continue to seek the return of his art pieces, which have become emblematic of the broader issues of looted art during the Holocaust.
