Argentina Recovers Nazi-Looted 'Portrait of a Lady' After Real-Estate Photo Tip

  • On September 3, 2025, Argentine authorities displayed the recovered 'Portrait of a Lady' by Giuseppe Ghislandi, found in Mar del Plata linked to Nazi-looted art.
  • The painting was stolen during World War II from Dutch Jewish collector Jacques Goudstikker and possibly brought to Argentina by Friedrich Kadgien, a Nazi fugitive.
  • The discovery followed a tip and photos of the portrait in an online real estate ad connected to Patricia Kadgien, whose home was raided along with others tied to her family.
  • Art expert Ariel Bassano dated the painting to 1710 and valued it near $50,000, while Federal Attorney Daniel Adler noted the community's role in the recovery.
  • Patricia Kadgien and her spouse were temporarily confined to their home as authorities prepare charges related to concealment in connection with genocide, highlighting an ongoing investigation and the complexities of Argentina’s wartime history.
