I'm no curator or professional photographer, but I had the impression that
one argument against photography in museums was the damage that frequent
exposure to intense light could cause.
I've always gotten the impression that that was less of an issue than they
let on, more of an excuse to prevent competing quality photos of the work from
being created so they can sell more postcards in the gift shop.
