Curator(馆长) Andrea Rossi was left dumbfounded by news of the accident, according to Sun. "When I told the curator, he was so shocked that for two to three minutes he couldn't say a single word," Sun said."But he was actually most worried that the boy and family would put too much pressure on themselves." "This is a one-off accident," Sun insisted. "I believe if viewers are placed so far away in the distance that paintings won't be destroyed if someone stumbles, they won't be able to appreciate the paintings to the full extent."Since news of the accident, visitor numbers at the show have gone up, but the restricted area in front of each painting has been enlarged to prevent further accidents.
