Clyde Kenneth Harris : ウィキペディア英語版 | Clyde Kenneth Harris Clyde Kenneth Harris was an American soldier and interior decorator who served as one of the so-called "Monuments Men" during World War II and later married into royalty. The son of a banker in Konawa, OK, he graduated from the University of Oklahoma. After earning his BFA, he was offered a scholarship to study in Paris, but instead attended the Parsons School of Design. After initially enlisting in the United States Army Corps of Engineers, he was later assigned to the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives program. While working with the MFAA, he retrieved Holbein's ''Madonna'' from the dungeon of Coburg Castle. He was later sent to Wolfsgarten Castle to conduct interviews relating to the theft of the Hessen crown jewels (by, as it turned out, three Americans).〔Petropoulos, Jonathan () "Royals and the Reich: The Princes von Hessen in Nazi Germany" pp. 345 - 346〕 During the course of his investigation, he met Cecilie, daughter of Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany and granddaughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II; the two were married at Hohenzollern Castle in 1949. The pair settled in Amarillo, TX, where Harris worked as an interior designer. He died in 1958, leaving one daughter. ==References==
