The guide was talking about how difficult it was to dust! Actually it didn't look too bad - so maybe the man with the feather duster and the steady hand had been up there between your visit and mine.
I had a lovely time in the Renaissance galleries - they were one of my 'aims'. I love the jewellery galleries too but, of curse, there is no photography allowed in there even if I'd wanted to.
The other cast court is completely closed off at all levels - but although the Trajan one is closed to the public, it is still possible to look down into it - at the moment. I think they are wonderful places.
