Vincent, Where Have You Gone?
My hunt for a missing Van Gogh has led me to valuable contacts, fascinating people and stories but, alas, not to the lost painting. Yet.
I have conversed with art dealers in Switzerland, museum officials in Amsterdam, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles, archivists in Germany and experts on holocaust art restitution in Washington, D.C. In addition, through my research, I have met several well-known and highly respected authors like Lynn Nicholas, Jonathan Petropoulos and Elizabeth Simpson (bibliography in link below.)

What is so fascinating about history is that it never ends. Nearly every week there is something in the news on looted art — found, fought over and, hopefully, returned to its rightful owner. In the meantime, I will keep peeling away the layers of information until a glimmer of a real lead reveals itself.
The hunt continues.
