German art collector Gurlitt dies

CORNELIUS Gurlitt, the German art collector at the centre of a Nazi stolen art scandal, has died at age 81.

Gurlitt's spokesman, Stephan Holzinger, said that the collector died on Tuesday morning at his apartment in Munich, where he had returned after major heart surgery.

Gurlitt was thrust into the public spotlight in November when authorities, following a report by German magazine Focus, disclosed that they had seized more than 1400 items - among them 1280 works by artists including Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall - from the Munich apartment more than a year earlier.

They had discovered the works while investigating a tax case.
