Title: Sbírka Richarda Poppera
Description: The book follows the fate of paintings from the Richard Popper collection, a Jewish collector of mostly Dutch, Flemish and Italian masters. Part of the collection has come through complicated paths to the National Gallery in Prague. These pictures are reproduced in our publication in color. Based on the archive survey, a catalog of all the works of this important collection was created, both of the images found and those lost. It includes an extensive study of the circumstances of confiscation and other war and post-war fates.
