Did the Germans include artwork they "picked up" after 1939 as part of their missing cultural heritage? Or is that part of their art history swept under the rug like a chair sized dustball.

Some of it was undoubtedly acquired from Jews at fire sale prices as the cost of obtaining an exit visa.

If only the Germans were half as conscientious about restoring property plundered from Jews.

Not to mention the works that the Nazis burned as “degenerate”.
