Unclaimed Art Of Jews Killed In Holocaust Graces Walls Of Israel Museum

Their owners were brutally murdered, but the art collected by Jews in pre-World War II Europe lives on. The Nazis stole more than 100,000 paintings from Jewish collectors during the Holocaust. Today, 2,000 of those paintings remain unclaimed. French museums have taken care of much of the unclaimed collection as the search for the descendants of the original owners continues. Today some of those works made their way to Jerusalem for the first time. 2/19/2008
