Argentine police recently raided a property in Mar del Plata as part of an ongoing search for a painting believed to have been looted by the Nazis over 80 years ago. Although the artwork was not found, authorities seized documents and firearms, and are investigating materials that could provide further context about the missing piece.

The painting, thought to be a portrait of Contessa Colleoni by Italian artist Giuseppe Gislandi, was stolen from Dutch Jewish art dealer Jack Goedsticke during World War II. The property searched belongs to Patricia Kajin, daughter of a Nazi official who once possessed the painting. The investigation remains active, with the cooperation of the current property owners.

Argentina hunts for painting stolen by the Nazis 80 years ago

On the hunt for a masterpiece, Argentine police raid this property in the seaside resort of Mar del Plata, hoping to recover a painting looted by the Nazis over 80 years ago. But while documents and several firearms were seized, they failed to locate the artwork. We had indications that the painting might be found in this property. We conducted a residential search with authorization from the Federal Guarantees Court. The painting was not in this house, but some documentation related to period engravings and drawings was seized that could provide some context. Dutch reporters from AD newspaper, on the trail of the artwork, spotted it in the photo of the for-sale notice for the house, alerting police to its whereabouts. The piece is believed to be a portrait of Contessa Colleoni, by Italian artist Giuseppe Gislandi. The painting was stolen from the Dutch Jewish art dealer, Jack Goedsticke, during World War II, whose entire collection was bought in a forced sale by Herman Goering. Goedsticke's daughter-in-law has pledged to recover all of the lost artworks. My search for the artwork of my father-in-law, Jack Goedsticke, began in the late 1990s and I have not abandoned it to this day. Documents show the painting was passed to Friedrich Kajin, a Nazi official and senior aide to Goering. The house that was raided is owned by Patricia Kajin, one of the SS officer's two daughters. Her lawyer says both she and her husband will cooperate with the authorities as the police investigation continues.
