　　據(jù)業(yè)內(nèi)人士介紹，法國(guó)的楓丹白露宮位居西方博物館中收藏和展覽圓明園珍寶最多最好的博物館前列，而景泰藍(lán)麒麟是廣為人知的文物之一，藏傳佛教的寺廟擺設(shè)品金曼扎也是一件非常重要的中國(guó)文物精品。這些遭竊的藝術(shù)品是由法國(guó)皇帝拿破侖三世之妻歐吉妮皇后1863年為她的中國(guó)館所收藏的。

　　楓丹白露館長(zhǎng)向法新社表示對(duì)館內(nèi)寶物失竊深感震驚。他說，“盜寶者似乎很有把握也很決斷，他們很清楚要什么東西，其作案手法非常專業(yè)”。楓丹白露宮的發(fā)言人稱，尚未估算此次失竊文物的價(jià)值。
