In the year 1956, after 39 years, the government of the former USSR returned to Romania the Romanian works of art, evacuated in 1917 during the WW I. Among those were also the paintings of the Romanian artist Ion Andreescu . Unfortunately a number of these paintings was replaced by fakes . Source: Ioan Andreescu, p.9.
