The State Nizhny Novgorod Art Museum in Gorky, Russia, is planning to exhibit art looted from Hungary by Soviet troops in World War II.
The art, including works by El Greco, Tintoretto, Francisco Goya, Camille Corot, and most of the leading French Impressionists, was apparently stolen from Jewish families in Hungary.It was taken to Northern Germany where it was seized by the Soviet 49th Army based in Gorky in 1945. Existence of the collection remained secret until 1990.
