A forgotten painting reappears in Frankfurt

A painting titled 'Schloss und Reich des Lirad' by artist Ursula Schultze-Bluhm has resurfaced after 56 years. The artwork, created in 1963, was discovered at the Albert-Schweitzer-School in Frankfurt after a search initiated by the city’s recent efforts to catalog its art collection. The piece is set to be featured in a major retrospective in Bern, which aims to highlight Ursula’s work alongside 120–140 other pieces spanning five decades. The Frankfurt Cultural Office initially had no record of the painting, which had last been exhibited in Wiesbaden over 60 years ago. The discovery came through research in the city archive, revealing that the painting had been loaned to a school since 1970.
