A painting by Pissarro from the Gurlitt collection has been restituted to the heirs of a French collector - it was looted by the Nazis in 1942. It's only the fourth painting in Gurlitt's trove to be restituted, but there are thought to be another 150 works (out of 1200) that are known to have been looted. More from Catherine Hickley here in The Art Newspaper.
