"A number of masterpieces believed to have been looted by the Nazis have been found in a Swiss bank safe, the Zurich prosecutor's office said Tuesday, confirming earlier reports in the German media.The paintings include works by Monet, Renoir and Pissarro, reported the German dailySüddeutsche Zeitung.The safe was rented by Bruno Lohse, an art historian and dealer commissioned by the Nazis to assess works of art looted from Jewish people in territories occupied by the Nazis, especially France, the report said.Lohse died in March aged 95. The paintings -- there are more than 14 -- were discovered in the safe of a Zurich bank by a Swiss prosecutor helping out with investigations into extortion and money laundering underway in Munich and Liechtenstein.The prosecutor, Ivo Hoppler, couldn't believe his eyes when he opened the walk-in safe of Zürcher Kantonalbank. Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that the paintings, if genuine, are each worth millions of euros, and also include works by Dürer, Sisley, Corot, Kokoschka and van Kessel.They are being kept in the safe pending the investigation. "Then a decision will be taken who will get them," the prosecutor, Ivo Hoppler, said, according to newspaper reports." (language: en)
