From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Gustav Rochlitz (1889–1972)[1] was a German[2] art dealer of Paris and Baden-Baden who was a key figure in the looting of art during the Second World War by the Nazis. He acted as an official agent of the Einsatzstab Reichsleiter Rosenberg.[3][4] Rochlitz figures prominently in the OSS Art Looting Intelligence Unit (ALIU) Reports 1945-1946 and ALIU Red Flag Names List and Index, which published a thirteen-page Detailed Intelligence Report (DIR) on his spoliation activities[5][6]
