      After Fuld's death on a business trip to Switzerland in 1932, his art collection passed to his son, Harry Fuld Jr. The son fled Nazi Germany in 1937, packing the collection into crates, which he gave to a shipping company to transport. The collection never left. Instead, the Nazis confiscated it. Kurt Gerstein, an officer in the Nazis' murderous Waffen SS, got the Matisse, either as a bribe or because he bought it, Glyn said.An expert in decontamination techniques, Gerstein was assigned to the Hygiene Institute of the SS, according to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. On its Web site, it says he was responsible for delivering Zyklon B — poison used in the gas chambers — to Auschwitz and other camps.Gerstein surrendered to French authorities in April 1945, as the Nazi regime was crumbling, and was held at Paris' Cherche-Midi prison, the museum says. It says he wrote a report there recounting his service with the SS and hanged himself in July 1945.French gendarmes recovered the painting three years later from a cache near Gerstein's home in Tuebingen, Germany, said Didier Schulmann, curator at the Pompidou Center national museum of modern art in Paris. It has been part of the museum's collection since 1949. (inglés)
