Painting Stolen by Nazis Returned to Museum
The Minneapolis Institute of Arts has returned a painting stolen by Nazis during World War II to the family of its rightful owner, reports The Seattle Times.
It was discovered that the painting, “Smoke Over Rooftops,” by Fernand Leger, had been seized from the estate of Alphonse Kann, a Jewish art collector who had lived in Paris but fled to London when the Nazis invaded France.
