A collection of images downloaded from the web by activating an image search based on art thefts and restitutions, including cases related to World War II and embezzlements that occurred at the hands of the Nazis. After all, even photographs of found artworks have educational value about art, and sometimes the less knowledgeable public believes that theft also represents a certification of genuine historical value and importance.
These images therefore can also be interpreted as photographs that illustrate the history of art, or at least of art collecting. It is a collection of pictures with people in uniform who protect art, since it is a symbol of power and wealth. The works of art as a tool in the hands of the ruling-class for building consensus and persuasion must be preserved, defended, stolen and sometimes found.
The book has anaglyphs which can be seen with 3d glasses. Glasses included.
