* One of Bonheur's best-known paintings, The Horse Fair or Le marché aux chevaux, features in a transitional scene in Don't Eat the Pictures when a Met Museum guard bends over to dust the painting's frame, just missing Mr. Snuffleupagus, Big Bird, and Prince Sahu passing by on their way to the Temple of Dendur.
