Fritz Gurlitt

Other artists who in large measure owed their reputations to the Gurlitt Gallery include Wilhelm Leibl, Hans Thoma, Max Liebermann, Lesser Ury, Franz Skarbina and Clara Siewert.

Her father was the Swiss sculptor Heinrich Max Imhof, who had by this time lived in Rome, ostensibly on account of his health, for many years.

Contemporary sources indicate that the marriage resulted in four recorded children as follows:[1] After the Nazis took power people were persuaded to investigate their ancestry and "demonstrate" that none of their four grandparents were Jewish.

Information on his Nazi Party connections during the intervening four year is incomplete, but a number of sources from the period indicate that his father was not Fritz Gurlitt but his mother's lover, Willi Waldecker.

Towards the end of the 1930s Manfred Gurlitt relocated to Japan where he enjoyed a career based in Tokyo as a conductor of western music.
