The value of an Emmett Kelly painting can vary widely depending on factors such as its condition, size, subject matter, and market demand. To determine the artist of a painting, you can look for a signature or consult an art expert or appraiser who specializes in identifying artists' works. They may be able to help you authenticate the painting.
Before proceeding to authenticate any articraft first make a small research your self and find out if there is something that can give it off as a reproduction. If this fails than the next step is to find an art expert. He will make a written or verbal assesment perhaps under a small fee and tell you wether your articraft is genuine or reproduction.
There is a Renoir painting called 'Roses'.
There are on the market plenty of handmade reproductions, made to look original.
The original is in a museum.
I presume you mean the Elgin marbles. They are a large part of the relief sculptures, which adorned the Parthenon temple in Athens since the 5th century BC. They were removed from ther by Lord Elgin, Englishman. They are now in the British Museum, London.
well if we did not have them the poor folks will never be able to see and experience a lot of life since only the rich would have the art and other stuff hidden away.

Museums get their objects in a variety of ways. Many are purchased for the museum's permanent collection. Others are donated to the museum for particular exhibits or for the collection. Still others are loans from other institutions or wealthy collectors. Loans rarely happen in the general collection, and are much more common for specific special exhibits.
In 1803 Vivant Denon (the director of the museum) renamed it Musée Napoléon after the Emperor. However after the loss at waterloo most of the artworks (over 2000 of them!) that Napoleon had seized on his conquests were sent back to their countries of origin and the museum was called the Louvre once again.
It is owned by the state of New York. Also supported by endorsements and admissions.

Smithson was British (I don't know his full name) but he cared so much about education that he wanted to provide for it. He saw the U.S as an opprotunity for that education but sadly before he came to see the U.S he died , in his will Smithson gave all of his life savings for creating a place of knowledge. He is still known. His body is at the Smithsonian somewhere, or so it is believed.
It's named for the British scientist James Smithson.
When Smithson died, his fortune passed to his nephew. However his nephew died only six years later and left no heirs. Per Smithson's will, the estate then passed "to the United States of America, to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institution, an Establishment for the increase & diffusion of knowledge among men"

There are alot of National Galleries but I take it that you mean London. If so, then there is no cost to enter, just a donation box as you walk round. There may be some incurred costs if you choose to participate in any activities but that depends on what the activity is and its popularity. Hope that answered your question.
The art in a museum is decided by multiple people, and is always up for contention. Large museums have many people who direct or curate a department, and these people are in charge of finding and obtaining the art works. These people are often overseen by an owner or a collection of owners who can state what they want to have in the museum. There are also private collectors, who can donate works they deem important to museums.
Because I don't know what painting you specifically mean, all I can say is that the value of small edition prints generally rise about 20% each year from the time of your purchase of the painting.
