(NYT18) LONDON -- July 22, 2002 -- BRITISH-MUSEUM-2 -- From the outside, the British Museum in London looks the same as ever. An average of 400,000 visitors come and go each month, drawn by special new exhibitions -- currently, the big-ticket show is a celebration of the life of the Queen of Sheba -- and by perennial favorites like the Elgin Marbles. But beneath its familiar exterior, the museum, Britain's most visited tourist attraction, is in financial turmoil. A planned $118 million study center, once a cornerstone of the museum's long-term strategy to engage the public more directly, has been abandoned. Visitors viewing at an Egyptian statue from Thebes dated about 1390 B.C. in early July. (Jonathan Player/The New York Times)
