Section of the AAMD Guidelines relied upon for the exception to 1970
Informed judgement that works were outside of the country of modern discovery before 1970
Explain why the object fits the exception set forth above
Based on the results of provenance research, the Princeton University Art Museum can make an informed judgment that the object was outside its probable country of modern discovery before 1970. D. Daniel Michel gave each item in his collection a catalogue number, the first two digits of which indicate the year he acquired the work, in this case (19)66. The validity of this cataloguing system is supported by exhibition loans and publications documenting both Michel’s ownership of various items in the appropriate period as well as at least one item published in another collection prior to the date of Michel’s acquisition.
