== Nazi-looted art == {{Main|Nazi looting of artworks by Vincent van Gogh}} [[Nazi-looted artworks of Vincent van Gogh|During]] the [[Nazi Germany|Nazi period]] (1933β1945) a great number of artworks by Van Gogh changed hands, many of them looted from Jewish collectors who were forced into exile or murdered. Some of these works have disappeared into private collections. Others have since resurfaced in museums, or at auction, or have been reclaimed, often in high-profile lawsuits, by their former owners.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Stryker|first=Mark|title=Dia defends its right to Van Gogh β Nazi-era collector's heirs say it's theirs|url=https://www.lootedart.com/news.php?r=MKSX32200381|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20210225074732/https://www.lootedart.com/news.php?r=MKSX32200381|archive-date=25 February 2021|access-date=25 February 2021|website=www.lootedart.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |date=20 January 2024 |title=Van Gogh painting looted by the Nazis embarrasses Japan |url=https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2024/01/20/van-gogh-painting-looted-by-the-nazis-embarrasses-japan_6448880_117.html |access-date=1 October 2024 |language=en}}</ref> The German Lost Art Foundation still lists dozens of missing Van Goghs<ref>{{Cite web|title=German Lost Art Foundation β Vincent Van Gogh|url=http://www.lostart.de/Webs/DE/Datenbank/Suche/SucheSimpelErgebnis.html?cms_param=SUCHE_ID%3D29168871|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=|website=}}</ref> and the [[American Alliance of Museums]] lists 73 Van Goghs on the Nazi Era Provenance Internet Portal.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Nazi-Era Provenance Internet Portal|url=http://www.nepip.org/public/search/itemsearch.cfm?menu_type=search&action=itmqsrch|access-date=25 February 2021|website=www.nepip.org|archive-date=26 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210426040901/http://www.nepip.org/public/search/itemsearch.cfm?action=itmqsrch&menu_type=search|url-status=live}}</ref>
