Paris, France: Louvre Museum 2


Enough about the exterior of the Louvre, here are the treasures housed within  the Museum. 

Initially I thought of organzing the photos because they seem quite haphazard to me (Greek, Egypt, Africa, Greek?) but I've kept the order as I explored the museum - haphazardly. And no, I didn't take 1500 hours or 62.5 days around the clock, just one very busy day.

Here's Mona Lisa, the one who is never alone. It's actually quite small in real life (about A4 size?) and it takes a while to get to the front so I didn't bother. Is this why visits to the Louvre take so long?

Nested around so, so many masterpieces, she is the only one people have eyes for.

Come for Mona Lisa, but stay for the other pieces, there is surely something for everyone in the Louvre.
