A Hole in a 'Diligently' Researched Collecting History?


David Gill tweets:
"Interesting development over Egyptian mummy mask presently @STLArtMuseum ... Details shortly"
How intriguing. Could there be some new fact about the collecting history of this object after all that due diligence of SLAM at the time of purchase and then in 1999 when they discovered where it had actually come from and then when Hawass pointed out where it had been well after its "1952" surfacing in Europe (which prompted their rudely imperious reply)? We will all watch Looting Matters to see.
