The Mahmoud Khalil Museum in Cairo, with holdings of outstanding Impressionist artworks amongst its collection, including Van Gogh, Monet, Pissaro, Toulouse Latrec, Mary Cassat, Rodin, Gaugin, Corot, which alone rivals most European National Collections. It's most prized painting, by Van Gogh, known alternately as "Poppy Flowers" and "Vase and Flowers" was stolen in August 2012 when thieves cut it from its frame. The museum in located in a palace built in the early 20th century, and was opened on 23 July 1962, dedicated to the memory of Mohammed Mahmoud Khalil Pasha and his wife Emiline Lock. In 1971 it was sectioned by the government of Egypt; President Sadat used it for executive offices, and a helipad was built just adjacent to the villa on the banks of the Nile river for presidential use. The palace was returned to museum use in 1993.
