TWO 15th century paintings looted from Poland during World War II that ended up in Galicia, have been returned after 79 years. They were on display at Pontevedra Museum following the 1994 purchase of an art collection owned by collector Jose Fernandez Lopez.

Pontevedra Provincial Council vice-president, Cesar Mosquera, said: “We’re helping to restore an injustice, helping to restore plundered art, helping in whatever way we can to make the world a better place.”

The manuscript has been in the National Library since 1886 and had classified it as an ‘anonymous comedy’. The library said the words used in the text were ‘closely aligned with Lope’s, and not with those of the other 350 playwrights who were part of the AI experiment’.

Mature

Experts then used traditional research resources to corroborate the findings.

“La Francesa Laura is a remarkable play, with the dramatic force expected of a mature Lope de Vega,” the library said.

Mosquera and a Polish government representative signed a formal restitution agreement last month.

The works - Mater Dolorosa and Ecce Homo (below) - were part of the 700 piece Czartoryski collection stolen by Nazi forces from the Polish village of Goluchow.
