11. There were NO photos of the trafficked Egyptian items

of controversy in the 3-4 major news articles that I initially read; I thought it could be related to the criminal investigation in progress.

After your comment, I researched last night and finally came up with a few images of the Egyptian stele and gilded coffin bust to post and also added information about the Louvre's Egyptian collection. It took considerable time and effort. What did you do?

The remark about the absence of images of the trafficked items and your criticism of the 'Venus di Milo' and other images is solo. Nobody else is complaining. The Louvre photos posted below the article aren't 'random' but recognizable highlights from an immense collection of world class artwork. Ridiculous..
