Jacques Goudstikker

artist Netherlands

Jacques Goudstikker was a prominent Jewish art dealer in the Netherlands before World War II, known for his extensive collection of European art. His life ended tragically in 1940 while attempting to escape the Nazis, leaving behind a legacy that has become emblematic of the cultural plunder faced by Jewish families during the Holocaust. Following his death, his art collection was forcibly sold to Hermann Göring at a fraction of its worth, an act that underscored the systematic looting of Jewish property by the Nazi regime.
