      University of Notre Dame and Dorville Heirs Agree on Restitution of Artwork (English)
      After purchasing the watercolor drawing entitled The Connoisseurs (1855) from an auction at Christie’s in 2011, John D. Reilly, a graduate of the University of Notre Dame and among its most supportive benefactors, put it on loan to the Snite Museum of Art (now the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art). Upon Reilly’s passing, the drawing was converted to a gift and entered the collection in 2014.Through consultation with representatives of Dorville’s heirs, the University became aware of the provenance of the work and of the context in which it was spoliated during World War II. Together they found a fair and equitable solution to preserve this work in the University’s collection for the betterment of its many, varied audiences. The heirs have been compensated, and the credit line has been changed to reflect the history of the drawing. The work will be temporarily displayed in the Museum with a label explaining its circuitous path to a university art museum in the United States. (English)
