BERLIN (AP) — German authorities say they have found a few more art works at the apartment of the late collector Cornelius Gurlitt, including a sculpture apparently by Edgar Degas and another that could be by Auguste Rodin.

The task force working to identify whether works in the collection were stolen by the Nazis said Thursday the works were never seized by prosecutors and were found by officials securing the estate of Gurlitt, who died in May.

In 2012, prosecutors impounded more than 1,200 pieces by artists including Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse that Gurlitt had hoarded in his apartment.

The task force said in a statement that "a small number" of further works was found but declined to elaborate or comment on why they were never previously seized.
