(P1683) "The second claim was submitted on behalf of the heirs of a French art dealer who had been active in Paris before WWII and who originally owned The Descent into Limbo by a follower of Hieronymus Bosch (NGI.1296). The dealer left Paris after it was occupied by the Nazis, but before he did so, he deposited thirteen paintings at a Parisian bank. These paintings were confiscated by the Einsatzstab Reichsleiter Rosenberg in 1941. After the war, the dealer gained restitution or compensatory payment for 12 of the 13 confiscated works, but appears to have made no effort to pursue the restitution of The Descent into Limbo, notwithstanding that it was well-known that it was in the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland since 1954.The Gallery acquired this painting in 1954 from art dealers Agnew & Sons in London as a work by Jan Mandyn. On enquiry by the Gallery at that time, Agnew’s contacted their Swiss agent who indicated that the painting had been in the possession of ‘Heinemann of Wiesbaden’, most probably Gallery Wilhelmine Heinemann."

(P1683) "he Kimbell's history with Glaucus and Scylla dates to 1966, when Richard Brown, the museum's first director, bought it for an undisclosed sum from New York's Newhouse Galleries, which had a long tradition of supplying numerous wealthy families (including Fort Worth's Kay and Velma Kimbell) with 18th-century British paintings. The provenance, or ownership history, that Newhouse provided to the Kimbell upon purchase was quite detailed up until the painting's 1902 sale to Anna and John Jaffe. Where all the previous owners of Glaucus and Scylla were listed by name, the provenance suddenly got fuzzy when it came to the Jaffes. "A French Collector, Paris, France, until after 1950," is all the document says. Just as disturbingly, the only notation of ownership after 1950 is listed as the inaccurate and impossibly vague "An American Collector." The omission of the Jaffe's name is, at best, odd, given that Agnew's Gallery of London, which owned the work before Newhouse, publicly advertised in 1956 their Turner as coming from the John Jaffe collection."
