In 1941, Aranka Munk was deported to Łódź, where she was subsequently murdered. After Aranka's deportation the portrait was unaccounted for. The circumstances under which it was acquired by Wolfgang Gurlitt, who sold it to the City of Linz in 1956, are likewise unclear. The City of Linz fully acknowledged that Aranka Munk was a victim of Nazi persecution and restituted the painting to her heirs in 2009.

The piece had been on display in Vienna's Albertina museum until research conducted by the Austrian government's Art Restitution Advisory Board determined that Adele Pächter “was forced to sell works” during the time of National Socialism in Germany. Florian Illies, a partner at Villa Grisebach, revealed to the Art Newspaper that the research conducted by the Austrian Art Restitution board also discovered other works by von Menzel that the Pächter family had to sell during Nazi regime.

Until September 1938, the painting was part of the collection of the Hamburg urologist Otto Siegfried Julius, who in 1938 fled from racist persecution first to Switzerland and then, in 1939, to the United States. Julius's Hamburg housekeeper tried to ship the priceless collection to Switzerland, but none of the works actually arrived in that country. In November 1953, the City of Linz acquired Emil Nolde's landscape Maienwiese from the Salzburg gallerist Friedrich Welz. How Welz came by the Nolde is unclear. On the recommendation of Austria's Art Restitution Board the City Council decided in favour of restitution in 2015.

Oil on canvas, 52 x 42.5 cm. Restituted to the rightful heirs of Fritz Loewenthal. Loewenthal's father-in-law William Bennigson was compelled to leave this painting and many other works of art in Berlin prior to his deportation and entrusted them to Wolfgang Gurlitt. In the presence of a witness Gurlitt then gave an undertaking to either return these works of art or to make full payment for them. As early as July 1950, Fritz Loewenthal, who had emigrated to Israel, contacted Wolfgang Gurlitt asking him, among other things, about the whereabouts of the Lesser Ury painting. Gurlitt refused to return the painting. In 1999, the City of Linz formally acknowledged that the Loewenthals had been persecuted and that the sale of the painting had taken place under duress.

The fact that as a victim of racist persecution Reichel was forced to sell up under duress after the Anschluss only became known to the City of Linz in the course of systematic provenance research. The paintings were restituted to the Reichels’ legal successor. Today they are on display at the LENTOS on permanent loan.
  17. ^ "Recommendation of the Advisory Commission for the Return of Cultural Property Seized as a Result of Nazi Persecution" (PDF). This case concerned the painting “Bauernmädchen ohne Hut mit weißem Halstuch” (‘Peasant Girl without a Hat and with a White Headcloth’) (1897) by Wilhelm Leibl. The Advisory Commission recommended that the German Federal Government return the piece to the heirs of Dr Alexander Lewin. The recommendation is based on the following facts: Dr Alexander Lewin (1879 – 1942) was the Chairman of the Board of Management at the hat manufacturer Berlin-Gubener Hutfabrik AG until 1938. His comprehensive art collection included Leibl's ‘Peasant Girl’. In summer 1938, Dr Lewin emigrated to Switzerland as a result of persecution, having been identified as a so-called 'Jewish Mischling (half-breed) of the first degree'. At the beginning of September 1938, Dr Lewin left the Board of Management at Berlin-Gubener Hutfabrik AG and in early March 1939, he gave notification that he would not be returning to Germany, which led to him being denied access to his entire estate as a result of a so-called ‘security order’ issued on 10th March 1939. On 4th August 1941, the German Reichsminister of the Interior deprived Dr Lewin of his German citizenship. His property was seized from him. The painting ‘Peasant Girl’ had come into Dr Lewin's possession at 1930 at the latest. In May 1938, the commission agent Litthauer from Berlin tried to sell the piece to Galerie Heinemann in Munich at Lewin's request, but the gallery did not buy the painting. By spring 1939 at the latest, the painting ended up in the hands of the German Reich, namely in the “Fuehrerbau”, Adolf Hitler's office building in Munich, where the artwork for the planned "Fuehrer Museum" for Hitler in Linz, Austria, was being gathered.

On the day the Nazis entered Brno, March 15, 1939, the Gestapo confiscated Dr. Feldmann's villa, which contained amongst other possessions his valuable collection of drawings. Dr. Feldmann and his wife had to flee the villa within a couple of hours of the occupation. Shortly afterwards, Feldmann was arrested by the Gestapo, imprisoned and tortured at the infamous Špilberk prison and consequently died of a heart attack in March 1941.
