Nazi's daughter is charged with hiding WWII looted painting

THE daughter of a fugitive Nazi officer has been charged with trying to hide a historic painting that was stolen from a Jewish art dealer during the Second World War.
Patricia Kadgien, daughter of high-level Nazi Friedrich Kadgien, had handed Portrait of a Lady by Italian artist Giuseppe Ghislandi to authorities in Argentina, eight decades after it was stolen.
A federal prosecutor announced the cover-up charge a day later. The fate of the work remains unclear, pending a decision in the case. The painting had been owned by Jacques Goudstikker, a Dutch-Jewish art collector whose world-famous inventory was taken by the Nazis.
Goudstikker died in a shipwreck in 1940 while fleeing the Netherlands as German troops advanced.
He sold his collection under duress and far below market price.
