Yes, I looked up the legal problems of restitution sites , it's not so simple ... Ie if not directly into the house and removed from the wall , and once bought, though, would be in terms of "forced " that such work can not be returned because there was a mutual agreement .
 
But I wanted to draw attention to themselves these works , their quality or value as works that tell something about the time , the extent to which they express this time ...
Some cycles graphics, Munch or Dix, recognizable ... but there are a lot of graphics performance and expressiveness weak ... it completes the picture peculiar time, but " alone " - it's just drawings and sketches , nothing special ... This is really a collection of a man who lived at that time , was familiar with the artists shared their views and it has value as a whole, if it is to crush this " message of " time is lost ...
