Experts see risk in letting da Vinci work travel
Art conservationists warn that plans to transport Leonardo da Vinci's painting "Lady with an Ermine" from Poland to exhibitions abroad might cause damage to Poland's most precious picture.
The Culture Ministry has agreed to let it be shown at London's National Gallery starting in November and is also considering requests to let it travel to Berlin and Madrid.
But the plans for it to leave Poland have sparked anxiety among art conservationists, and a news conference in Warsaw on Tuesday was devoted to the debate. Its permanent home is a Krakow museum.
