Because museums don't buy stolen goods. If they think it is stolen goods they will not buy it, and if they find out it is, they have to surrender it. This is why museums go through extensive research to establish provenance of a work of art. Sounds to me like this museum didn't do their job very well.

In real estate a bona fide purchaser for valid consideration who didn’t know there was a mechanic’s lien on the property, because it hadn’t been filed, would not have to pay the mechanic’s lien. But that’s real estate. No idea what the law is in art dealership.

the German government paid her $13,000 in reparations in 1958
Sounds fair and square to me..........She sold it and now wants it back? Nope..........
