It is not uncommon for museums to loan priceless works of art to sitting presidents; the Obamas borrowed works by the likes of Mark Rothko and Jasper Johns.

I don’t think there are any fans out there Greyduster ?

The Guggenheim Trust have now made a new enemy.?

I wonder if they normally allow a President to borrow a picture?

Gold loo for a gold plated A***.

Mollie I would have liked to be fly on the wall of the museum.

GD looks like I got the extra asterisk smile

Are we only allowed two asterisks, I wonder?

Just the thing, I would have thought, for someone who is such a complete **! Apologies for any fans out there.

I saw this and wondered if someone was being a bit tongue in cheek or if there is a genuine reason for offering the alternative. Made me laugh...

Trump has apparently expressed a wished to display a Van Goch painting in the White House
The painting in question is

The Guggenheim Museum has refused, but offered an alternative.....
