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 14 November 1970. The collector maintained a sequential inventory of their collection with the year of each acquisition specified. The accuracy of the list is demonstrated by a number of works in the inventory that were either published in other collections prior to the collector’s acquisition date or published or exhibited shortly after the acquisition, in each instance with the appropriate ownership history documented. According to the inventory, the collector acquired this work on 20 May 1970 from Alan C. Lapiner, a New York art dealer.
