The article deals with the exhibition Kunstwerke und Kunstdenkmäler im ehemailigen Polen opened in October 1939 in Breslau (Pol.: Wrocław). The exhibition, prepared by Dagobert Frey, Günther Grundmann, Eberhard Hempel and Gerhard Sappok, presents, apart from a number of maps, a modest series of photographic illustrations selected from those taken during this academic team’s field trips. These materials were displayed in a random manner with an aim to lending some impression of how far within Poland the influences of the native German lands reached. The article discusses the idea, history, and the propaganda dimension of the exhibition.
