The additional objects are imported pursuant to loan agreements with the foreign owners or custodians. I also determine that the exhibition or display of the additional exhibit objects at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY, from on or about October 29, 2012, until on or about January 27, 2013, and at possible additional exhibitions or venues yet to be determined, is in the national interest. At the conclusion of the exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, three of the works will continue to be displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art until on or about January 31, 2014. I have ordered that Public Notice of these Determinations be published in the Federal Register.
