    ''Mount Sinai'' (1570-72) is an oil and tempera depiction of the peaks of Mount Sinai and a small group of pilgrims greeting a figure resembling John the Baptist.There is no dispute that Baron Ferenc Hatvany purchased the work in the 1920's and deposited it and other paintings in a Budapest bank during the war for safekeeping. Many of those paintings were looted at the war's end and dispersed throughout Europe. The lawsuit claimed that the El Greco was taken by retreating Germans. (English)
