What Happened: The Supreme Court ordered reconsideration of the Cassirer family's claim to a Pissarro painting worth $30 million, currently in Madrid's Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. The painting was forcibly sold to Nazis in 1939 for $360 as a condition for the family's escape from Germany.
Why It Matters: The ruling could set a precedent for Holocaust survivors and their descendants seeking to reclaim stolen art. A new California law, specifically designed to help the Cassirer family, will now be used to evaluate the case's merits.
