Rose was a very smart woman and she attended many of France’s top art universities. She accepted an employment opportunity as an assistant curator for the Jeu de Paume Museum in Paris, France. There are many important museums in Paris, but the Jeu de Paume Museum was not as well known as the other museums in the city. This all changed when the Germans invaded France and then occupied the city of Paris.

When the Nazi’s occupied France they stole as many valuable works of art as possible from the many museums and private collections throughout the country.
