WCMFA conducts research on all works of art in its collection. An important part of that research is the effort to establish complete provenance, or full history of ownership, of each object in our Permanent Collection. In accordance with guidelines issued by the American Association of Museums (AAM), WCMFA is trying to ascertain the complete provenance for artworks that fall within the category relating to the "Nazi era" period, 1933 to 1945. Due to the challenging nature of provenance research, it is an ongoing and continuous endeavor and requires significant time and resources. It should be noted that the covered works listed reflect the current state of research and by themselves neither suggest nor imply that these works were looted during the Nazi era.
