I took these when they had the Napolean Exhibit back in February of last year.

Awesome pics! I love that exhibit.

Gorgeous!

Really beautiful! Thanks for sharing the pictures! I have never been able to see the actual exhibit, so it's really great to see these!

Tell this to Mark Cuban, so he'll realize we ARE NOT his backdoor child to exploit!

These are truly beautiful pieces and OKC should be proud of them. I have seen them a couple of times and they never cease to amaze me.
However, I have always wondered how they clean/dust them. Particularly the large one in the entrance of the musuem! Difficult....

Verrrrry carefully! ;)

David, it's possible that they use compressed air to dust the sculpture. They could have a pneumatic lift to lift someone up with a compressed air hose and blow the dust off it. That's my guess.
