Overview

Summary: "Investigation of the provenances of items in the Lemmers-Danforth Collection in Wetzlar, built up over a period of more than 50 years, took three years. This publication presents the most important results of the extensive research in Germany and abroad. The provenance of furniture, clocks, textiles, ceramics, silver, paintings and reliefs from contexts of Nazi persecution is presented using 19 examples from the practice of provenance research. Newly evaluated and previously unknown sources tell of the former owners, their fate under Nazi rule and the search for their families" Back cover.
