    Aranka Munk (née Pulitzer, born November 28, 1862, died November 26, 1941) was a Viennese art collector murdered in the Holocaust.


    Life


    Born in Mako, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1862, into a Jewish family, Munk was the daughter of Simon Siegmund Pulitzer and Charlotte Pulitzer and the sister of Klimt's chief patron Serena Lederer and Jenny Steiner. She had three daughters, Lili Munk; Ria Munk and Lola Christine Sachsel-Kraus.


    The suicide of Ria Munk


    In 1911, her daughter Ria committed suicide. An art collector and patron of the arts, Munk asked Klimt to paint a death-bed portrait of her daughter. Klimt painted three versions which had different fates. The first portrait Klimt painted for Aranka Munk was "Ria Munk on Her Deathbed," which Munk found so usetting that she gave it to a sculptor friend, whose heirs sold it after the war, passing through the collection of the singer Barbra Streisand. The second version was later reworked to show a dancer, and the third, which Munk kept, was the unfinished "Portrait of Ria Munk III", also known Frauenbildnis, which ended up in the Lentos Museum's collection. Klimt died before completing it.


    Nazi era and death in the Holocaust


    Aranka Munk was murdered in the Holocaust because of her Jewish heritage. The Nazis seized the Klimt from Munk after she was deported to a concentration camp where she died in 1941. In 1942, her daughter Lola Munk died at the Chełmno Extermination Camp.


    Claim for restitution


    Vienna lawyer Alfred Noll submitted a claim for restitution on behalf of the Munk heirs in 2007.


    The provenance of Portrait of Ria Munk III


    After Klimt's death Aranka Munk hung the unfinished portrait of her deceased daughter in her lake house. In 1941, the Nazis seized her property and possessions and deported her to a concentration camp in Poland. On November 26, 1941, Aranka died in the Holocaust. The portrait passed through Wolfgang Gurlitt on its way to the Lentos Museum. In June 2009, the portrait was restituted to the heirs of Aranka Munk.
