Masurovsky said he dug up a five-page list of the works from Gurlitt’s collection. According to him, about 115 paintings along with other works were inventoried in 1946 by the Monuments, Fine Arts and Archives program (MFAA). Those in the program, set up by the Allies in 1943 to protect cultural property, were often known as the “Monuments Men.”Most of the art, which included works by Edgar Degas, Marc Chagall and Max Beckmann, were returned to Hildebrand Gurlitt in 1950 by Theodore Heinrich of the Office of the U.S. High Commissioner for Germany, according to a receipt in the archives.Masurovsky’s group posted the list on his group’s Facebook page and publicized the discovery on Twitter on Wednesday.Four paintings were not returned to Gurlitt, instead going to French authorities in 1947, Masurovsky said.
