Leonardo is different. He even has his own museum around Tours, because a French king was wise enough to invest in him. Castle, gold, chicken and chicks. The Venus de Milo was bought from a peasant (in Milo) by the French Consul for about 5K$ (gold value) for personal use, some 150 years ago. But before his death, the guy donated her to the state, not the Greek one, of course. She is still doing thousands of customers daily, most of them Americans, I don't know why, but it's the same in Florence. But what Marx ghost has to to in the British Museum ? Repulse Yanks ?
