Under a contract for services, he compiled a critical inventory catalog of the collection of German paintings at the Anhaltische Gem\u00e4ldegalerie in Dessau in 1994\u201395. In 1995, he joined the Central Institute for Art History in Munich, where he played a key role in digitizing the library\u2019s catalog and subsequently took over as head of IT. In 1999, he was also entrusted with responsibility for the institute\u2019s photo library, which, with approximately 900,000 media items, ranks among the largest photographic research collections on European art history from the Middle Ages to the present. Drawing on the diverse holdings, Klingen developed numerous projects in the fields of digital humanities and provenance research. In 2024, he concluded his tenure at the Central Institute for Art History and has since served as a consultant.\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div data-spectra-id=\"spectra-be92650a-d593-4dbf-b652-cff3281fc61c\" style=\"overflow: visible;--spectra-background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);--spectra-overlay-opacity: 1\" class=\"spectra-overlay-color spectra-overflow spectra-background-color spectra-dim-ratio wp-block-spectra-container\" data-orientation=\"vertical\">\n\t\n\n<div data-spectra-id=\"spectra-50fc3bf9-32d1-4981-8f6a-f9cd4e9053f3\" class=\"wp-block-spectra-icons\">\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure data-spectra-id=\"spectra-42a9df78-75c5-40c7-96b0-6eaa197fb7ef\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"http:\/\/munich-art-research.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/s-Disterheft-600.jpg\" alt=\"s disterheft 600\" class=\"wp-image-3843\"  title=\"Contact\" srcset=\"https:\/\/munich-art-research.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/s-Disterheft-600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/munich-art-research.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/s-Disterheft-600-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/munich-art-research.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/s-Disterheft-600-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\t<h4 data-spectra-id=\"spectra-55f5bd8b-7c87-4de5-9c43-5aff9c9432eb\" style=\"--spectra-text-color: ast-global-color-2\" class=\"has-text-color has-link-color spectra-text-color wp-elements-1c7bf9f88831436d5c0e10a6e50cb4f1 wp-block-spectra-content has-ast-global-color-2-color\">\n\t\t<strong>Sabine Disterheft, M.A.<\/strong>\t<\/h4>\n\n\n\t<p data-spectra-id=\"spectra-859e78f1-7d0e-43d2-8b09-c02a9514b6e5\" style=\"--spectra-text-color: ast-global-color-3\" class=\"has-text-color has-link-color spectra-text-color wp-elements-040fd0b6c4619e92a6abf8b27b07e95b wp-block-spectra-content has-ast-global-color-3-color\">\n\t\tProvenance researcher, expert in collection research in the Rhineland\t<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"mailto:kontakt@munich-art-research.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">kontakt@munich-art-research.de<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-3&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-medium-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" data-wp-on--keydown=\"actions.handleKeyDown\" id=\"accordion-item-3\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">Vita<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-3\" data-wp-bind--inert=\"!state.isOpen\" id=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\t<p data-spectra-id=\"spectra-mtwtzaqx-ik8gut\" class=\"wp-block-spectra-content\">\n\t\tSabine Disterheft studied art history and archaeology at the University of Cologne.
