The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is dropping words like 'negro', 'dwarf' and 'eskimo', because of fears they could cause offence. The gallery is home to more than a million works, including masterpieces by Vermeer and Rembrandt. We asked Martine Gosselink, the head of history at the Rijksmuseum, to give us an example of a painting that's had a name change (The Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Credit: Getty Images)
