What is the best way to go about looking for work by American artists in
European collections?  I am searching for the Salon works of lesser known
artists of the nineteenth century.  While I still haven't exhausted all
possibilities "at home" I thought I might also look abroad.  Parisian
collections would be the logical place to start, but are there national
inventories or indexes I might check?  Somehow I doubt it but I thought I'd
ask the museum professionals.
