    The process of handing back the three paintings, which are currently on display in the city's Heydt Museum, had previously been delayed by doubts about who the real owners were. The work "Felsige Flusslandschaft," by Frankfurt artist Otto Scholderer, was bought by the museum in 1939 after its forced sale a year earlier. "Erinnerung vom Dampfboot auf der Donau," by Adolph Menzel, was given as a gift to the Heydt in 1956. The owners of Hans von Marees' "Tatar mit Pferd," forced into sale in 1937, fled Germany for the Netherlands where they were caught and killed in a concentration camp in 1944. The painting was bought by the museum in 1948 and is expected to be given to the grandchildren of its deceased owners. (English)
