Provenance is a sweeping and powerful novel about a hoard of art masterpieces stolen by the Nazis during World War II — those who collected the paintings, stole them, and now^propose to sell them.
Provenance is.also the story of how big money gradually enters and corrupts the trade, and how paintings, which begin as a reflection of the highest aspirations of the human spirit, end by evoking its lowest.
In the galleries, offices, apartments, restaurants, and discos of New York, Paris, London, Zurich, and Rome, a host of glamorous and sinister figures mix their business and pleasure. With and around Alex Drach move detectives and security operatives, auctioneers and dealers, titans of buying and selling, bankers who control Vissza
