- This painting hung in a museum for 71 years, but was finally returned to its rightful owner after it had been stolen by the Nazis. The Royal Museums of FIne Arts in Belgium transferred Flowers by Lovis Corinth to the estate of Gustav and Emma Mayer, who fled their homes in Germany on the eve of World War II. The family’s attorney says the Mayers left behind 30 paintings, all of which were plundered by the Nazis. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
Honestly this is very respectable I feel like most places would be like “it’s ours now lawyer up to get it back” or something like that but they’re actually urging people to find the original owners and it’s honestly just really respectable
I agree!
It nice to see a museum doing what's right because many do not.
What about the African paints these 👿 pinks stole # Return them to the rightly owners
@@stopchanging6753 keep crying what they gonna do send them back to be looted by some warlord that kills the entire village pft why dont you go to an african country before you run your mouth
@@buchan448 bro wtf..
@@buchan448 you don’t know anything about Africa, please sthu.
@@buchan448 Well no one need their oppressors,killers,robbers and rapers to keep their valuable treasures just because the reason you mentioned in your comment which is a big lie people like you need to educate them selves and stop watching or listening western MSM cause they lie so much so like rabbit defecates a day 200-300 times imagine one false info repeated hundreds/thousands times a day as truth it'll definitely become true so check your facts
Nice that the Belgium museum did this. Sadly the British would never return all of their stolen art.
@JAB00Z Yeah, yeah. What a boring troll. At least make a long paragraph describing how random people deserved to be killed and stuff. Get better at trolling if you actually want to make someone angry.
Most British 🇬🇧 stolen arts were from colonies. Including us 🇫🇷
@JAB00Z I don't understand the logic of your troll. You're saying that bad art deserved to be stolen but that doesn't really make sense, even for a troll. The thief gets ugly art while the owner loses art they thought was good. Wouldn't a good troll say something like, the art deserved to be destroyed because it's ugly?
You should really up your troll game.
@JAB00Z troll
@JAB00Z no it didn’t. Go away troll
wow thats amazing. so happy for the family to have their painting again
It’s amazing that the museum is putting in effort to correct these injustices of the past
Incredible after all these years.
@Michelle H There's nothing interesting about you so you have to base your personality on your race.

@@Kumorini huh? all they said was happy Black history month
Amazing even though it’s been over 75 years they have finally been returned to there rightful place.
71 years..🤦
@@bstaznkid4lyfe392 how is it 71 years ago? That would’ve been 1951 and WW2 ended in 1945.
@@Aburke54 then it must have been a misspeak on the reporter because she did say 71 years.
@@Subterranean_sebastian I didn’t hear them say that I might be wrong
@@Aburke54 probably 81 years
That’s nuts. I am glad it made it back. Art is amazing. It blows my mind it was a painting of flowers but I absolutely get it. Lot’s of history and sentimental value.
It's amazing they could get it back!
A simple reminder that everything done in the dark must come to light
I swear me and my germany family might have some paintings like that, so sad to know how scared my grandma was when this happened.
Just take them and give them back.
Let us know when they give it all back 👌 💯
@Michelle H Thought it was white history month
so glad that this family finally got what rightfully belong to them back
Wow., How Wonderful..
I pray more people get their Property back!
I recommend watching the movie “woman in gold” it talks about a similar story about how a woman fought to get her pairings including one with a woman in gold of the ladies aunt.
Apart form the story being really amazing that after all these years they were able to trace the painting back to the family. I will never understand art, like why is a painting of a pot and flowers so special or interesting and makes it fine art
I like to paint and when i do it usually means something for example, i paint flowers from my garden because they were planted by my dad when they first bought the house and now he was taken away from us and will probably never come back 😔 i miss him so much and looking at those flowers die and come back alive each year is beautiful but when I paint them its like they never die and i can see them whenever i want. Maybe one day you will understand the meaning of art ♡
That's fairly nornal. We usually don't get taught about art as a dense subject (which it is). A good way to try understand "why" is to study art history and see how painting and its theory have evolved thorough time
It is mostly because of the technique used by the painter, which can be new, different and unique. The way a painter used the colors, their brush strokes, their typicality etc etc.
@@hojosconsal9913 What you just said reminds me of music theory. Not many people want to learn music theory until they understand why it is so important and how it is the foundation of almost all music created.
@@GemX02 That's a beautiful story, sorry for your loss and thanks for sharing that :) I would understand buying something like a painting like that if it held a personal memory for me, maybe that's a reason, people connect to a certain painting so it means a lot sort of thing?
Waiting for the Britsh museum to return the stolen items, which i think will never happen.
Most of the countries they stole items from no longer exist … so who do they return the items to?
@@csm2455 u mean they just disappeared ? Give me some names
@@ph0en1x68 Just to name a few on the African continent...
Abyssinia - Now known as Ethiopia, Rhodesia - Now known as Zimbabwe, Southwest Africa - Now known as Namibia
Tanganyika - United with Zanzibar to form Tanzania, Zaire - Now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
@@pambronson4467 but they exist now also, The names have been changed and some combined with another countries.
Justice.... a long time coming.
My 92 Grandmother left her home in Danzig, Germany (now Gdańsk, Poland) right before the Russians came, I wonder if anything was recovered.
JAMANB. I sure hope it was. I am a real art lover.
Well finally something there gets returned back to where it belongs, just goes to show that Hope is not always lost
It is indeed nice, I hope British will learn a lesson and return valuable artifacts they looted to their respective countries of origin.
it’s amazing how things last this long.
I hope injustice in the present can be stopped for a just future
Important work. Glad they can return it and many other lost items to their rightful owners.
Absolutely brilliant ☺️
it may have took ages put they but effort to return it. respect .
Even though the family found their painting. I still wish to see it in an art museum.
Maybe the museum could create a replica of it
Nice painting
beautiful story 💕
That’s really fabulous!
The monument men helped reunite art with their owners during and after ww2, there is a movie about those men. I would highly recommend it.
Will anything looted by the Smithsonian museum be returned back to its rightful owners and native countries?
This is America where we take from the poor and give to ourselves
@@higg4209 Well, you ain’t wrong
Good, nice painting back in rightful owners hands.
remind me of people's items retuned to them decades later
I am learning about WWII and all the leaders and country and what they did! That is So So COOL
👍🏾in a way, it can bring some closures for the families n that something lost can be found.
Imagine just sitting down, about to drink your coffee, and then you get this brought to your house
What about all the treasure they got that's stolen?
Where did they find it in Argentina in a home of Dear Furier.
This is wonderful
Wow after all this time well better late than never glad she got it back🤔
Yea, uhh... I had a painting stolen back then! I forget what it looks like but please send it right away.
About time!
British art museam *nervously sweating*
*whistles*
Hides everything under the carpet.
It’s a great thing that she’s getting her family‘s painting back but in my opinion and this is just me I would have let the painting stay in the museum for all to see instead of bringing it home and just hanging it in my house.
Nice
You know they should do the same with Africa
Good
I’ll never understand the value of some of the “Fine Arts”.
It's the history of it that gives it value.
I want to see this happen with a lot of African artifacts and statues as well It's a great move in the right direction
Wonderful. Justice has prevailed.
Isn’t it sad that literally any normal artist could paint that?
great!! Hopefully we can get Moctezuma's headdress back to Mexico where it belongs.
Nice 👍
Why so long
Does property count like land its self
Y’all going to return the stuff you took from the natives in Namibia too?
How cool
On next episode of pawn stars. I got this flower painting 😂😂😂😂😂
What
I wonder how they proved it was theirs.

Anyone seen the movie “woman in gold”?
It was better off in the museum where everyone can see it
It belongs wherever the owner says it belongs.
@@MrZachgonz
Well said
@@MrZachgonz truth
Returning paintings is nice and all, but these actions could NEVER correct those injustices!
Wow 😯
(The war) chills
2 years later the painting cost hundred million dollars
The "not so great" Britain can learn from it & do justice to the rest of the world.
Well…
Woah
“The Not-Zees”
As they should. It's only right.
Shame that any of it happened. If only ppl would start thinking for themselves and be individuals instead of listening to political leaders, world would be much better off. Leaders only have power because peasants invest in them.
Fascism rules
Just imagine British returning everything they looted. 🤣They go broke.
Exactly.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was gazpacho involved?
The soup?
Do they also get the money the museum made and interest?
The Mayer family was already compensated for the loss of its property by German authorities in the 1960s, and so the relatives will be asked to pay 4,100 euros, the estimated cost of the painting.
@@BlueIvysAssistant Nooe, it’s their property still. The Belgians misused it, they should pay them compensation for using it.
Okay understand but now is time for all European countries return all the arts they stole from Africa.
Who would want that hideous painting? Let it go...
It belongs to the owners so they could do whatever ever they want with it, so that’s none of your business.
They could just say it’s there’s and get it LMAO
I alrdy know they finna get alot of cash for that painting if they auction it
The painting is estimated to be around 4,100 euros so they wouldn't get much.
Only 16
What is the value of it
4,100 euros a little over 4,000 usd.
@@BlueIvysAssistant is that all ,, i thought i was worth millions 👍🏻
@@gummyerin No, while the artist of the painting is well known in Germany, his paintings and himself aren't famous enough.
@@BlueIvysAssistant ah ok ,, cheers 👍🏻
I guess the Bush family had to give back the art .
Did they return the family members too?
Yay
Instead of carrying about his people, he still remains a tirent.
Wat
They have to pay them something huge for the trauma they cost the family for loosing such an asset 😂😂😂😂👍🏽
Picasso i like it
First time Inside Edition used the word "loot" in years without being forced to, and they had to put "natcees" in the title...
😂
Welp, atleast they were probably actually natcees this time. Baby steps.
Now Britain pay back India 45 trillion pounds and the United States give blacks 40 acres and a mule each
Youre cool with genocide?
Bet it's not valuable so that's why they gave it back.. 😆
After 75 years? Did you not listen to the video? They had been trying to find the owers since the '50s.
@@BlueIvysAssistant It's 71 years..Did you not listen to the video?..Go remove your ear wax..These aren't famous painting so they don't want it..
@@bstaznkid4lyfe392 The artist who painted it is pretty well known and if they didn't want it, it wouldn't have been hanging in that museum the entire time.
If you wanna talk about stolen how about all the gold stolen by the us?
Do you mean conquered ?
The Simpsons joke here
Nice how about we head to British museum and return all their stuff since most is basically stolen as well
Hello
There
Reminds me of a Simpsons episode
Sorry but they abandoned the property and to say it was stolen is a disgrace. For all you know they house could have been burned down and all possessions lost.
A painting
Yes
👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤
