The city of Winterthur in Switzerland have sent Anton Graff's Self-Portrait at the Age of 72 back to Poland after a provenance probe. The painting had been hanging in a museum in Wrocław in 1937 but later disappeared from a depot a few years later in 1939. Graff's picture was eventually purchased by the Swiss city from a Basel art dealer for 16,800 CHF in 1986. Click on the link to read more.
