I must warn that the "no photos" is the usual policy in Spain. :-x
Sometimes you'll find some museums where you can do all the photos that you want. Contacting them in advance may be very usefull, as sometimes they can give you access to the archives, or to be acompanied by the curator (and that's the one who has got the keys... :roll: ).
With the exception of delicate textiles or paintings, the rest of the times I think is just pure snobism. If it was for money they would sell you nice postcards and cataloges,but the 90% they don't have anything like that... :evil:
Another point is here or they are free or you have to pay, but it's unlikely to be asked a tip (or to have a box for...). :?: As if they had enough money...
An example of the good that allowing photos can do is the last exhibit in the Cluny Musee of Paris about the sword...I'm sure that a lot of people became aware and wanted to visit it it after seeing the visitor's photos. It's free advertising directly to your target "customers"!
