California passes law to help Holocaust survivors and heirs recover Nazi -looted art.

The law is a response to a court ruling that allowed a work by Camille Pissarro to remain in a Spanish museum.

The 1897 painting, called “Rue Saint-Honoré , Effect of Rain,” belonged to Fritz and Lilly Cassirer , a Jewish couple who sold it under duress to escape the Nazis .

The fight to take back ownership of art and other personal items stolen by the Nazis continues to traumatize those who have already gone through the unimaginable.

“It is both a moral and legal imperative that these valuable and sentimental pieces be returned to their rightful owners,” Newsom said Monday .
