Summary/Abstract: The article renders the heretofore poorly studied actions of the German national-socialist, occupant authorities between 1940 and 1941 targeted at the Cracow’s painter Józef Mehoffer, whose roots were German-Austrian, and his wife. The analysis of German documents collected in the Archive the New Files in Warsaw has clarified many aspects of the life of this well-known Polish painter. Previously much of this was incorrect, and the documents significantly contributed to the part of his biography during the occupation.
