Art collector's heirs join with university to find lost art

Heirs of legendary Jewish art collector Rudolf Mosse joined with a German university to track down works he once owned.

Mosse’s heirs joined with researchers at the Freie Universität Berlin to form the Mosse Art Research Initiative, or MARI. Details of the partnership, reportedly the first in which state entities and heirs have joined together to recover works from a private collection, were presented to the press in Berlin on Tuesday.
