Modernist art haul, 'looted by Nazis', recovered by German police
About 1,500 modernist masterpieces – thought to have been looted by the Nazis – have been confiscated from the flat of an 80-year-old man from Munich, in what is being described as the biggest artistic find of the postwar era.
The artworks, which could be worth as much as €1bn (£860m), are said to include pieces by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, Paul Klee, Max Beckmann and Emil Nolde. They had been considered lost until now, according to a report in the German news weekly Focus.

On a related subject there's a movie coming out this December titled "The Monuments Men" dealing with recovering the art the Nazis stole during the war...looks like it might be pretty good....
