    More than 80 years af­ter Na­tion­al So­cial­ists seized the oil paint­ing “Pol­nis­ch­er Ulan auf Vor­posten im Win­ter­wald” (Pol­ish Lancer at an Out­post in the Win­ter For­est) by Wo­j­ciech Kos­sak (1857–1942) from the Petschek fam­i­ly in Aus­sig, Czechoslo­vakia, the Lin­de­nau-Mu­se­um Al­tenburg and its gov­ern­ing body have de­cid­ed to re­turn it to the heirs of its pre­vi­ous own­ers. The resti­tu­tion is the re­sult of a re­search project fund­ed by the Ger­man Lost Art Foun­da­tion, in which the mu­se­um un­cov­ered the ori­gin of the Nazi-loot­ed art­work.The paint­ing once hung in the break­fast room of the Petschek fam­i­ly home in Aus­sig (now Ústí nad Labem, Czech Re­pub­lic). When they fled from the Nazi regime in Septem­ber 1938, the Petscheks were forced to leave vir­tu­al­ly all of their per­son­al pos­ses­sions be­hind, in­clud­ing this paint­ing. All the fam­i­ly’s prop­er­ty was ex­pro­pri­at­ed in 1939. This pic­ture, along with oth­er artis­tic ob­jects and fur­ni­ture, were brought to Berlin, where in May 1941 they were auc­tioned “by or­der of the Au­thor­i­ty”—i.e. for the ben­e­fit of the Ger­man Re­ich—by the Union auc­tion house.
