    Jacques Rosenthal was the owner and proprietor of the antiquarian bookshop “Antiquariat Jacques Rosenthal,” Munich, and a private collector of early modern European globes and Renaissance paintings. As a Jew living in Nazi Germany, in 1935 Rosenthal’s firm was “Aryanised” and transferred to non-Jewish ownership. Works of art from Rosenthal’s collection in Munich and apartment in Paris were subsequently confiscated. Others were sold off in order to fund Emi Rosenthal’s (1857–1941), Jacques’s wife, emigration to Switzerland. (English)

    In December 1935, due to pressing economic circumstances and the increasing exclusionary measures of the National Socialists, the company had to be sold by the Jewish owners to an employee of the company, the antiquarian Hans Koch (1897-1978). Koch continued to run the company under its previous name, albeit of diminished importance, until 1977. (English)
