PARIS A French heiress who spent years trying to win back a priceless impressionist painting that was stolen by the Nazis on Tuesday renounced her claim to the work to end a feud with an American university.
Leone Meyer, 81, spent nearly a decade trying to secure ownership of Pissarro’s 1886 “La Bergere rentrant des moutons” (Shepherdess Bringing in Sheep), which was seized from her parents during the occupation of Paris in World War II.
After the war, the painting ended up in Switzerland before winding up in a private US collection.
