Bruno Lohse

Wilhelm Peter Bruno Lohse was a German art dealer and SS-Hauptsturmführer who, during World War II, became the chief art looter in Paris for Hermann Göring, helping the Nazi leader amass a vast collection of plundered artworks. During the war, Göring boasted that he owned the largest private art collection in Europe. His story is told in the documentary film, Plunderer: The Life and Times of a Nazi Art Thief (2025).
