A painting entitled "The Father" by Marc Chagall will go on sale next month at the Phillips auction house in New York. The piece was among 15 works stolen by Nazis and eventually returned by France to the heirs of the affected families.
The 1911 oil-on-canvas set to be auctioned on 15 November, was purchased in 1928 by a Polish-Jewish violin maker, David Cender, who lost his possessions when he was forced to move to the Łódź ghetto following the Nazi invasion of Poland.
