Among the other claimants seeking restitution from the foundation are the heirs of Therese Clara Kirstein, a German Jew who committed suicide in 1939. The heirs believe a drawing by Menzel and a Liebermann study, once owned by Kirstein, were sold under duress shortly before her death or, more likely, confiscated and sold shortly after. (English)
