What I have always kept my eyes open for are those objects of art that were liberated from the Nazi liberators. So far I havn't really put my hands on anything that I know of.

Also when looking at Chinese art objects I have been keeping my eyes open as well. Simply because the British sacked and destroyed the Chinese Imperial Summer Palace in 1864. Untold amounts of stuff was liberated from the Emperor at that time. I have seen a desk on the Antique Road Show that was of Imperial quality.
