A painting that was in custody of Nazis for long and was later on given back to the offspring of its Jewish owners is likely to earn up to $25m (£13m) at an auction.

This Painting by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's Strassenszene demonstrates a scene of a city street, and this painting is one of his 11 paintings which portray everyday life.

This is basically the most noteworthy German Expressionist picture that has ever move towards to auction hall.

Most of the Kirchner's works, say, almost 600 of his paintings were smashed and damaged by Nazis in the 1930s.

So if you wana catch hold of this painting which has so much historical value just be in New York on 8 November.
