Stars: 4
Review by: BKF
The title of
the book sums up the story. It's a fascinating history of
turn-of-the-century Vienna, a brilliant painter; his most famous
painting and its model; WWII; seizure of art by the Nazis; the
legal battle to return seized art... and much more. The one most
difficult thing I found to deal with were all the people the author
included in the book. That was a 'battle' I often lost.
