Georg Baselitz, a prominent German artist known for his innovative approach to figurative painting, has died at the age of 88.

His career spanned over six decades, during which he became a leading figure in post-war German art.

His passing comes just before a major exhibition of his latest works at the Fondazione Giorgio Cini, coinciding with the Venice Biennale.
