This Just In: Judge Allows Sale of Lloyd Webber’s Picasso

The AP reported, just minutes ago, that U.S. District Judge Jed S. Rakoff has just ruled that the sale tomorrow night at Christie’s of Andrew Lloyd Webber‘s blue-period Picasso can proceed. The AP story gave further details about the allegations surrounding the Nazi-era history of the painting.
Now the question is whether this last-minute ownership controversy will have any effect on bidders.
