PARIS — The French government announced Monday that it will return a Nazi-looted Gustav Klimt landscape painting to its rightful owners more than 80 years after it was stolen from a Jewish family in Austria in 1938.<\/p>\n

The colorful 1905 oil work by the Austrian symbolist painter titled \u201cRosebushes under the Trees\u201d has been hanging in Paris\u2019 Musee d\u2019Orsay museum for decades.<\/p>\n

French Culture Minister Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin told a Paris news conference that \u201cthe decision to return a major work from the public collections illustrates our commitment to the duty of justice and reparation vis-\u00e0-vis plundered families.\u201d<\/p>\n

The oil work will be returned to the family of Nora Stiasny, a Holocaust victim who was dispossessed during a forced sale in August 1938.<\/p>\n

Bachelot-Narquin said that French authorities hadn’t initially identified the painting as being stolen by the Nazis, and its provenance only recently came to light after French government-led investigations on the issue.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is in recent years that the true origin of the painting has been established,\u201d she said, adding that it was \u201cthe only Gustav Klimt painting owned by France.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c’Rosebushes under the Trees’\u201d is a testament to the lives that a criminal will has stubbornly sought to eliminate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thousands of artworks looted by the Nazis across Europe wound up in French museums after the Allies defeated Nazi Germany in 1945. Though many have been returned, French authorities have stepped up efforts in recent years to find homes for the scores of hanging heirlooms that remain unclaimed.<\/p>\n
