These are terms used in Switzerland to refer to artworks owned by Jewish people in Nazi-run countries prior to and during the Second World War, which were sent to neutral countries to avoid their being looted or otherwise appropriated.
I'm looking for an English equivalent to this term, without much success. I am hoping there is one that has some international recognition. Otherwise I'm thinking of something like "evacuated artworks", though I'm not very keen on that.
Help appreciated.
