The Supreme Court has ruled that a painting by Camille Pissarro's "Rue Saint-Honoré in the Afternoon, Effect of Rain" should be reconsidered under a California law aimed at strengthening Holocaust survivors' claims to recover stolen art. The painting, valued in the tens of millions of dollars, was once owned by Lilly Cassirer Neubauer, who surrendered it to the Nazis to secure visas for herself and her husband. It has since changed hands several times, including being bought by Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza in 1976, before being sold to a Spanish museum in the 1990s.
