Attend this International Provenance Research Day presentation to learn about Legacy Explorer (https://explorer.rjlegacy.org), Jewish Digital Cultural Recovery Project’s (JDCRP) digital archival platform for accessing documents related to Nazi-era looting of cultural property throughout Europe. Legacy Explorer is built to make researching objects, victims, and histories faster and more accessible for scholars, survivor families, art market professionals, and the broader public.
The initial release makes over 56,000 digitized records from multiple archives searchable at a single online address. These include previously unscanned photographs and materials from the Wiesbaden and Marburg Central Collecting Points that are for the first time searchable at the document level.
A recent update added dedicated pages for creators and presumed owners of objects. The platform will continue to expand with additional datasets and functionalities.
In a live online demonstration on April 7, 2026, at 4 p.m. CET / 10 a.m. EDT, JDCRP staff will introduce key features and answer questions. Free of charge.

Perspectives on Nazi-looted art from a JDCRP researcher, a victim family member, and a museum professional.
During a two-year research project for the Jewish Digital Cultural Recovery Project (JDCRP), Senior Research and Documentation Officer Anne Uhrlandt recovered the long-neglected story of Dutch-Belgian Jewish art collectors Elisabeth (1871-1963) and Hugo Daniel Andriesse (1867-1942) and the fate of their looted collection of art and textiles.
In this one-hour online conversation for International Provenance Research Day, Uhrlandt and JDCRP Executive Board Chair Deidre Berger will moderate a discussion with Sabra Anckner, Andriesse family member (Washington, D.C.), and Margaret Doyle, Head of Curatorial Records at the National Gallery of Art (Washington, D.C.). They will discuss the impact of provenance research in today’s world and its potential to reconstruct lost family stories.
