Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Between 1939 &amp; 1944, as the Nazis overran Europe, they were also quietly conducting another type of pillage. <i>The Lost Museum</i> tells the story of the Jewish art collectors &amp; gallery owners in France who were stripped of rare works by artists such as Vermeer, Rembrandt, Degas, Cézanne &amp; Picasso. Before they were through, the Nazis had taken more than 20,000 paintings, sculptures &amp; drawings from France. <i>The Lost Museum</i> explores the Nazis’ systematic confiscation of these artworks, focusing on the private collections of five families: Rothschild, Rosenberg, Bernheim-Jeune, David-Weill &amp; Schloss. The book is filled with private family photos of this art, some of which has never before been seen by the public, &amp; it traces the fate of these works as they passed thru the hands of top German officials, unscrupulous art dealers &amp; unwitting auction houses such as Christie’s &amp; Sotheby’s.
