Important document about the Nazi-looted and subsequently privately sold Klimtâ€™s masterpiece the Water Serpents II.

The painting was apparently an asset of the late husbandâ€™s silk company â€œBrÃ¼der Steinerâ€ as it is referred to in the document. In June 1938 after the Anschluss under the threat from the Nazis Jewish herself Jenny Steiner fled from Vienna and the painting together with several of her valuable tangibles including other works by Klimt and Egon Schiele was confiscated as Jewish property. In 1940 three of Steinerâ€™s Klimt paintings including the Water Serpents II were offered on the sale of the leading Viennese auction house Dorotheum 458.

The picture remained in Ucickyâ€™s possession until his death in 1961 when his third wife Ursula nÃ©e Kohn; b. 1922 inherited it.
