Wenn Bilder sprechen: Provenienzforschung zu Max Liebermann und seinem Netzwerk

Thanks to financial support from the German Lost Art Foundation, since 2020 the Liebermann-Villa in Berlin has been able to conduct a provenance research project into its permanent collection, with a particular focus on cultural objects displaced as a result of National Socialist persecution. This volume results from the 2021 conference “Provenance Research, Max Liebermann and his Network. Reports from the Field” staged in collaboration with the Technische Universität Berlin. The book is published on the occasion of the exhibition “When Pictures Speak. Provenance Research in the Collection of the Liebermann-Villa” (Liebermann-Villa am Wannsee, October 2022 to March 2023). The volume explores, among other themes, provenance research into Max Liebermann and his network in archives, on the art market, in museums and in academia.
