About

Rose Valland was known for her precise notes taken through her time as a spy for the MFAA and afterward. She made sure that every piece of art was accounted for, and it, according to Stanton Catlin in his retelling of her responsibilities, was responsible for returning many pieces of art to their rightful homes.
