Heirs Challenge Sotheby’s £1.2M Pissarro Sale Over Nazi Looting Claim
Seven heirs of Jewish banker Salomon Flavian are legally contesting Sotheby’s sale of a Camille Pissarro painting valued at £1.2 million. They claim the artwork was looted by Nazis during World War II and argue they were excluded from a previous settlement. Sotheby’s maintains the sale was legitimate. The case underscores challenges in recovering Holocaust-era stolen art and ensuring rightful heirs' involvement.
