It’s not fair to stereotype Argentina as the last refuge of the Third Reich. You know Brazil had a lot of them living out the rest of their days there too. And then there’s Uruguay and Paraguay. So really it’s all four of those countries together, collectively, that were the last refuge of the Third Reich. And sure, maybe Argentina was number one because of Adolf Eichmann and the whole SS uniforms that their fascist regime wore. So “Argentina was the main part of a geographically contiguous last refuge of the Third Reich, with a dishonorable mention for Brazil since that’s where Mengele drowned and Franz Stangl hid until 1967, and then the two Guays in between tied for third” is fair to say.

Anyway Dutch newspaper AD reports a Buenos Aires-area woman is being a little coy about why a painting of the Italian Countess Colleoni by Giuseppe Ghislandi, hailed by art historian Bram de Klerck as “one of the most important portraitists in Northern Italy in the late 17th and early 18th centuries,” shows up in a photo of her living room on a real estate website, especially since the painting hasn’t been seen in 79 years and was last in the possession of an Amsterdam-based Jewish art dealer. But the woman also turns out to be the daughter of high-level Nazi SS official Friedrich Kadgien so now it all kind of makes sense. “I don’t know what information you want from me, and I don’t know which painting you’re talking about,” the woman’s daughter wrote in response to a question sent via Instagram DM. She then asked to contact her on WhatsApp with the questions in writing. “Sorry, I’m too busy to answer them right now,” she wrote, and then ceased responding.

“The researchers from the National Archives traced a second painting a day later. A photo on one of the Kadgien sisters’ social media appears to show a floral still life by the 17th-century Dutch painter Abraham Mignon,” AD writes futher down in the article. This is why Goebbels hated the media.
