Bequest of Cornelius Gurlitt Decisions by the Foundation of the Kunstmuseum Bern

After spending several years researching the bequest of Cornelius Gurlitt, which comprises approx. 1,600 works, the Foundation of the Kunstmuseum Bern has reached several decisions as to how to deal with works of uncertain provenance and the claim staked by the heirs of Dr Ismar Littmann. The decisions were reached following extensive investigations and considerations as well as in cooperation with independent international experts.
