Visitors look at paintings during an exhibition of artworks that belonged to Jewish families and were looted by the Nazis during the World War II, commonly referred to by the acronym "MNR"(Musees Nationaux Recuperation - National Museums Recovery), at the Palais Rohan Museum, in Strasbourg, eastern France, on October 22, 2022. - An exhibition in Strasbourg brings together twenty-seven works repatriated in 1945, in the hope of being returned one day to their owners or to their descendants. At the end of the Second World War, 61,000 works and art objects from France were recovered in Germany and Austria, and more than 45,000 were quickly returned to their owners, while others were sold by the State. - RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - MANDATORY MENTION OF THE ARTIST UPON PUBLICATION - TO ILLUSTRATE THE EVENT AS SPECIFIED IN THE CAPTION (Photo by Frederick FLORIN / AFP) / RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - MANDATORY MENTION OF THE ARTIST UPON PUBLICATION - TO ILLUSTRATE THE EVENT AS SPECIFIED IN THE CAPTION / TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY Marie JULIEN - RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - MANDATORY MENTION OF THE ARTIST UPON PUBLICATION - TO ILLUSTRATE THE EVENT AS SPECIFIED IN THE CAPTION (Photo by FREDERICK FLORIN/AFP via Getty Images)

ORANIENBURG, GERMANY - JANUARY 27: Carnations hang at the infamous entrance gate that reads: "Arbeit macht frei", or "Work sets one free" at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp memorial on January 27, 2020 in Oranienburg, Germany. January 27th will mark the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp, the most notorious of the many Nazi concentration camps. The Nazis began the operation of Sachsenhausen in 1936, initially as a prison for their political opponents, but later used it for other groups, including Jews and Soviet prisoners of war. Sachsenhausen was the first camp to test the use of gas chambers for perfecting the mass murder of prisoners. (Photo by Carsten Koall/Getty Images)
