Paris exhibits work from a controversial artist whose paintings are so significant they are fought over.

Expressionist Emil Nolde's work is so renowned it is shown all over the world.

The Moderna Museet in Sweden currently shows Blumengarten (Utenwarf) which was painted in 1917.

It is an example of Nolde's flower paintings, completed in admiration of Vincent Van Gogh.

Controversy surrounding Nolde's art work hit the headlines following reports it had been looted from a German-Jewish refugee.

A Holocaust survivor group is demanding its return, which authorities have said is between the family and the museum.

Nolde was a member of the Nazi party which did not recognise Expressionist work.

Hitler removed more than 1,000 paintings during his rule in Germany.

Until that time Nolde's art had been celebrated.

Paris's Les Galeries Nationales due Grand Palais offers visitors the chance to see for themselves at an exhibition which runs from September 25th to January 19th next year.

Guests will be able to see Nolde's watercolours in the very first exhibition of his work to be organised in Paris.
