NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Yale University is suing to hang onto one of Vincent Van Gogh’s most famous works.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Ivy League university sued Tuesday in federal court in Connecticut to assert its ownership rights over “The Night Cafe.” It also seeks to block a descendant of the original owner from claiming it.<\/p>\n

Pierre Konowaloff of France says he is the great-grandson of industrialist and aristocrat Ivan Morozov, who owned the painting in 1918.<\/p>\n

Russia nationalized Morozov’s property during the Communist revolution. The painting now hangs in the Yale University Art Gallery.<\/p>\n

The school says it wants to remove any cloud over its ownership.<\/p>\n
