About This Book

Not only Adolf Hitler and Hermann Göring utilized the occupation of France during the Second World War to procure artworks for their collections — German museums also made acquisitions at the time. The advantageous foreign exchange rate and the large range of artworks, for instance, from seized Jewish property, afforded favorable opportunities. French museums like the Louvre also expanded their holdings during this time. Many purchases by German museums were restituted to France in the postwar period, while some have remained in the collections until today and are first now becoming a focus of research. The essays in the volume from German and French perspectives analyze the similarities and differences in the activities of museums on the French art market during the occupation for the first time.

Adolf Hitler et Hermann Göring ne sont pas les seuls à avoir profité de l'Occupation de la France par l'Allemagne pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale pour acquérir des œuvres d'art pour leurs collections - les musées allemands y ont également fait des acquisitions. Le taux de change avantageux et l'offre importante d'œuvres d'art provenant par exemple de propriétés juives spoliées ont offert des opportunités favorables. Les musées français, comme le Louvre, ont également élargi leurs collections à cette époque. De nombreuses acquisitions de musées allemands ont été restituées à la France dans l'après-guerre, mais certaines sont restées dans les collections jusqu'à ce jour et n'ont attiré l'attention des chercheurs que récemment. Les contributions de ce volume analysent pour la première fois, des points de vue français et allemand, les points communs et les différences entre les activités des musées sur le marché de l'art français pendant l'Occupation.
