Harry Fuld (born 3 February 1879 in Frankfurt am Main; died 26 January 1932 in Zurich) was a German Jewish entrepreneur whose art collection was looted by Nazis after his death.
Fuld founded a company for renting in-house telephones, which developed into one of the leading groups in the telecommunications industry in Europe.
After Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP came to power at the beginning of 1933, the Nazi regime expropriated Fuld's heirs because the family business was considered "Jewish".
[6] Gerstein, who was responsible for transporting the Zyklon B poison used in concentration camp gas chambers, committed suicide in 1948.
In 1951 the Matisse was moved to a Paris museum along with hundreds of other objects stolen by the Nazis,[7] and ended up at the Centre Pompidou.
