Thanks to EEF for this article from their newsletter, which I missed on the 1st March: "Un monument au célèbre égyptologue russe Vladimir Golenichtchev (1856-1947) sera inauguré mercredi soir au Caire, selon des sources officielles. Le vice-président de l'Académie des Sciences de Russie Nikolaï Platé assistera à la cérémonie d'inauguration, qui se déroulera devant le Musée national du Caire. La collection rassemblée par Vladimir Golenichtchev, qui a consacré sa vie à l'étude de l'Egypte antique, comprenait plus de six mille objets. Considérée comme l'une des meilleures au monde, elle est devenue la base de la collection du Musée des beaux-arts Pouchkine de Moscou."
Rough translation: A monument to the celebrated Russian Egyptologist Valdimir Golenichtchev (1856-1947) will be officially unveiled on Wednesday night in Cairo, according to official sources.
