Provenance and Comments: According to the Rose Valland crate inventory, only one tapestry labeled as DRF 25 was in crate DRF 2. The measurements on the French restitution documents are slightly different--385 x 245 cm. There is a slight possibility that DRF 24 and DRF 25 were reversed by the French restitution authorities. The French inventory associates a single item with DRF 25 while DRF 24 consists of 4 items.
