Bavarian Commission Concludes Wassily Kandinsky Painting Should Be Returned To Jewish Family
- German commission recommends return of Kandinsky painting to Jewish family heirs
- Painting currently owned by Bavarian state bank
- Commission advises return of "The Colorful Life" to heirs of Hedwig Lewenstein Weyermann and Irma Lewenstein Klein
- Painting was part of Lewenstein family's extensive art collection and was auctioned off in 1940 during Nazi occupation of Netherlands
- Commission concludes painting was seized as a result of persecution and there is no evidence to support the assumption that Irma Lewenstein Klein arranged for the painting to be handed over of her own free will.
