"In June 2011, the Museum of Fine Arts reached a financial settlement with the heirs and the estate of Walter Westfeld for Eglon van der Neer’s Portrait of a Man and Woman in an Interior, allowing the painting to remain at the museum. Walter Westfeld (b. 1889 – d. after 1942) operated an art gallery in Wuppertal, Germany, during the Nazi period. A 1935 decree from the Reichs Chamber of Fine Arts forbade him from working as a dealer because he was Jewish, and he was ordered to close the gallery in May of 1936. That very month, an exhibition of works of art owned by Westfeld was held at the Galerie Kleucker in the nearby city of Düsseldorf, including a “Company Scene” by Eglon van der Neer. This was almost certainly the MFA painting. The paper trail ends there, and begins again five years later. The MFA purchased the painting from E. and A. Silberman Galleries, New York, in December, 1941. Silberman probably acquired the painting in the spring of that year, but it has not been ascertained from whom. It is not known for certain how the MFA’s Portrait of a Man and Woman in an Interior left Westfeld’s possession and made its way to the United States." (language: en)

"BOSTON MFA SETTLES VAN DER NEER CASEJune 27, 2011 The Museum of Fine Art, Boston, has settled with the family of a German art dealer whose Eglon van der Neer painting, Portrait of a Man and Woman in an Interior (1665-67), was looted by Nazis when he was sent to Auschwitz during World War II. The museum agreed to pay an undisclosed restitution to the family and is keeping the painting in its collection. (The record price paid for van der Neer at auction is more than $1.4 million, set in London in 1989. According to journalist Paul Jeromack, an Old Masters expert, said the lady's "dour expression" made this one worth $1.2 million, tops.)" (language: en)
