A lot of times it's pricey because they don't have a professional
photographer on staff and to have one come in and do a set-up just for
one object costs them a lot.

Subject: RE: [h-cost] a question about museums

Museums are kinda weird this way.  The Phoenix Art Museum for instance
has 
no photograph what so ever of the portrait of the dress I am 
recreating......you'd think they'd photograph everything just for
insurance 
purposes.

I'd contact the museum.  Often, they will photograph the article if you
are 
willing to pay for it.  It can be pricey.  The Norton Simon Museum
offered 
to do this for me on a particular portrait.  They wanted $100 6 years
ago.
