Provenances at Glasgow Museums: UK spoliation Reports

UK Holocaust Era Provenance Research

UK museums have an internet site where spoliation reports are centralised and provenance texts can be searched. It is called "Spoliation reports from UK museums" and it is managed by the Collections Trust.

The UK Spoliation reports site is fast and easy to use.

Anyone can perform a search.

A user can search one museum or all museums at once. Searches are full text. Results are easy to understand.

Glasgow Museums: Analysing the Provenances using Digital Tools

How can one analyse and use the information that UK museums have collected and made available in their Spoliation Reports?  

One approach is to look at the provenances to see if any patterns appear that might indicate where to focus further research.

In this example, from the Glasgow Museums spoliation reports, provenance texts are grouped and counted.

Which names appear most frequently? What is known about them? What pops out?

Look for yourself...
