editThis ancient sculpture has got a great significance in terms of history and archaeology. Wikipedia readers should be entitled to this treasure of ancient civilization.Chmyr (talk) 03:21, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Copyvio?

- Hrm, interesting. The article appears to bear similarities—and in many cases identical text—from the History section on down to the article located at /article.cfm/sothebys_auction_guennol_lioness on server artgalleries.suite101.com. The problem is, that is a blacklisted site, so a) I can't give the link whole, you'll have to splice it together and b) it's blacklisted for a reason, I'd presume. I'm checking edit history dates next. —C.Fred (talk) 02:17, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
- And this article dates only to December 5; Parchin's article dates to October. I have deleted the offending paragraphs as infringement (per the note right below the edit box, among other places). —C.Fred (talk) 02:22, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Not on display at Brooklyn Museum anymore?
editThe first paragraph says the statue is still on display at the Brooklyn Museum, but I believe this information is outdated. The statue does not show up in the museum's database if you search for 'lioness'.[1] Redrawnoxen (talk) 02:17, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
- It is a loan, not owned by the musem, and these often aren't in a collection database. Johnbod (talk) 13:42, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
More historical/contextual information, less collector bragging rights
editIt is remarkable that such an amazing and interesting piece of art is only talked about in terms of how much it sold for at auction. I will be doing research in order to upload some more worthwhile content and would love if someone could help me. This piece has more meaning than simply its price. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dioxazine (talk • contribs) 23:13, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
