About

In 1894 the Kupferstich-Kabinett in Dresden acquired a drawing by Otto Greiner (1869–1916), a leading German artist associated with the Symbolist movement. How did that drawing, which the museum marked as "lost" after World War II, end up at the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles? This exhibition narrates the drawing's journey, focusing on its shifting wartime status, the tools that researchers use to track down missing artworks, and the impending return of Greiner's drawing back to Dresden.
