Title: The Faustian bargain
Description: "Nazi art looting has been the subject of enormous international attention in recent years, and the topic of several books. But such works leave us wondering: What made thoughtful, educated, artistic men and women decide to put their talents in the service of a brutal and inhuman regime? This question is the starting point for The Faustian Bargain, Jonathan Petropoulos's study of the key figures in the art world of Nazi Germany.".

"Petropoulos follows the careers of these prominent individuals who, like Faust, that German archetype, chose to pursue artistic ends through collaboration with diabolical forces."--BOOK JACKET.
