    1:22 I like the English curator's little chuckle describing the mahut's arm pumping up and down. He's clearly tickled and adores that little clock....

    Do you have lectures on art works like The National Gallery in London's RUclips channel?

    Amazingly intricate piece, but brings to mind all of the strife we've subjected animals to over the eons. Presume the tusks are ivory?

      Well...yours was a particularly jarring change of subject (from the sublime to the ridiculous).

    Too many artifacts around the world's museums are robbed from other countries. Once the pride and joy of countries that lost them forever. Ask Greece and Egypt how many prized objects were robbed by Europe especially by the British and French.

    Disappointing poor presentation. Ignorant of any detail.
