Was just at the Met a few days ago – but I had no idea as I passed by the Picasso’s that one of the Metropolitan’s  Picasso paintings was damaged last week by accident – appearently, this happens more often than one would have thought – and there is an article I linked to from the New York Times that describes what the museums do when this happens.
