The dispute over one work of art, Degas's Landscape with Smokestacks, was featured in headlines and on television. But because the suit was settled before trial, the story behind the headlines has not been publicly presented. Howard J. Trienens, a lawyer for the defendant collector, traces the landscape's travels from its pre-WWII home to its current location in the Art Institute of Chicago, laying out the mystery surrounding the work and demonstrating the legal complexities that surround Holocaust restitution cases, yet are seldom examined in depth by the media.
