A cathedral in Germany has returned a 17th century Dutch painting seized by the Nazis in 1941 to the heirs of its original Jewish owners, writes Alex Capon.
The picture, a copy of a known work by Jan van der Heyden (1637-1712) in the Louvre, depicts the square and cathedral in the town of Xanten in North Rhine- Westphalia. It had originally belonged to Viennese collectors Gottlieb and Mathilde Kraus.
