Photograph Holdings
The digitized holding builds the “fourth part” of the restitution materials. It is structured into several sub-categories and consists of photo materials, which were not exclusively extracted from the Federal monuments office archives. Apart from photos existent in the restitution materials, the better part of the scanned negatives are located in the Federal monuments office photo archives. Another part is located in the Austrian National Library picture archives, which was divested from the Federal monuments office photo archives.
Parts of the holding:
¦ Leica small picture negatives (about 4800)
¦ Plate negatives (about 630)
¦ Photograph files (about 1500)
¦ Positives, which are arranged in individual folders (about ´1200)
¦ Positives that are arranged in index cards, which made up a part of the confiscated works of art stored in the Neue Burg central depot (about 3500)
¦ Property-cards (about 677)
¦ Photo boxes Alphons u. Louis Rothschild; Rudolf Gutmann (about 500)
¦ Positives and negatives in the general restitution holdings roughly (about 400)
¦ Negatives in the Austrian National Library picture archives (about 320)
¦ Positives in the archives of the museum of fine arts Vienna (about 120)
The part 1 and 2 negatives are kept in the Federal monuments office photo archives.
Part 3, the so-called photo register, contains contents from boxes, which were arranged alphabetically according to owners and objects and amount to a part of the general restitution holdings (Box 30/1 and 30/2).
Part 5 is a fraction of the objects stored in the Neue Burg central depot. (Lederer, Pick, Albert Pollak).
Part 6 contains a part of the works of arts, which were transferred from the CACP Munich to the Salzburg Residenzdepot.
Part 7 are recordings from the Rothschild and Gutmann collections, which have together with the corresponding index cards their own box identification within the individual-related restitution material holdings. The index cards enclosed with the pictures give information about works of art as documented in the Rothschild and Gutmann inventory registries. The copyright lies with the respective institution/museum.
