Did not see the exhibit in Paris, but was a bit disappointed with the book, quite a few photographs were not well taken. For such an important collection it would have been nice to have a book you could really study the photo's from. Also, many pieces from the collection were not displayed, especially mamluk and left gaps that would be hard to explain. Never the less, am happy to have the precious mamluk references.
