@CarrieOnA11y I agree. Some years ago, I visited the British Museum in London with my son. We went to see the Elgin Marbles, and a member of staff called us over. They have replicas which I was allowed to touch to feel the fine detail of the carvings. It was a great experience, sadly lacking from most museum visits.
