It really is a shame that locking up works of art and paying large sums of money for insurance is preferred than sharing them with the those that paid for them.
Sue says that 'some are not in mint condition' which beggars the question why public money should be used in the future if the general public are prevented from enjoying the benefits of them........visually ( or financially), if they were sold.
I think Jan's idea of having digital images of the 'Dignitaries' is a great idea......much easier to delete than vote out of office!
If no copyright restrictions are in place for the pictures published on here Sue, why not lift them and print your own copies of the one's that interest you. They are good images and would tolerate an enlargement too.
