Problematyka restytucji na przykładzie rozproszenia Kolekcji Gołuchowskiej

The article focuses on the issue of the restitution of the Gołuchów Collection, one of the most important private art collections in Poland. During World War II a large part of the Gołuchów Collection, founded by Princess Isabella Działyńska née Czartoryska (1830-1899), was looted by the Nazis and the Soviets. In the communist period (Polska Rzeczpospolita Ludowa 1945-1989), as a result of a deliberate museum policy, the surviving items of the collection were dispersed to National Museums in Cracow, Warsaw and Poznan and have remained there till now.
