An amateur collector who spent 50 years and every spare penny compiling an unrivalled collection of art is to leave the entire thing to the British public, in a gift hailed among of the most generous of its kind.

Tim Sayer, a former BBC Radio 4 news writer, has amassed more than 400 works from the finest artists of his time, including David Hockney, Gerhard Richter, Henry Moore, Alexander Calder and Bridget Riley.
