Museum Gives Beethoven Work Back to Owners After 80 Years



A unique piece by Ludwig van Beethoven is finally set to be returned to the heirs of its original owners. The piece is owned by a family that was the richest in pre-World War II Czechoslovakia, but they had to flee to escape the Holocaust. It’s the autograph of the fourth movement of the string quartet in B-flat Major, op. 130, a highly valued late quartet by the German composer. Inside Edition Digital’s Stephanie Officer has the details.

  2. Ludwig von Beethoven was German born in Bonn. The portrait that you’re looking at was done by Joseph Karl Stieler in 1820 . Seven years before he died. You can go to Wikipedia and look at his portrait there or look up the artist’s name and works. Ludwig von Beethoven is white. His color doesn’t matter. What matters is the Man and the Genius of his Music. I wonder how long it has really been since that masterpiece was heard? The Hard Copies belongs to the People that it was Willed to, but the Music belongs to the Masses.(people).
