Paul von Mendelssohn-Bartholdy
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.
Born on Feb 14, 1875 (150 years old)
