I was disheartened when Andrew Johnson oddly omitted an integral part
of the story in his review of Nancy Yeide's book on Goering's
Collection. Certainly, Goering did not steal everything in his now
documented collection, but nowhere in the story does Johnson point out
that most of the actual theft victims were Jewish, like Paul
Rosenberg, for instance.
We have a great duty to remember the
Holocaust when looking at Goering's collection. It contained many major
works that were taken during the Holocaust from Jewish owners and
collectors.
Just like this one.
