A Pablo Picasso painting sold by a German Jewish businessman to fund his escape from Nazis should stay in New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, an appeals court has ruled

On Wednesday, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled that the businessman's great-grandniece had left an"unreasonable" delay in demanding the return of the Picasso painting 'The Actor'.

Chief Judge Katzmann recognized that following the horrors of the Nazi era, there was a need to provide"some measure of justice, albeit incomplete" to victims and their heirs.that there was an"unreasonable" delay in the demand for the return of the artwork. "Indeed, over seventy years passed between the sale of the painting in 1938 and Zuckerman's demand that the Met return the Painting in 2010," court documents noted.
