| Description: | One of the largest museums in the world situated in France. I mean where else would you find such great museums then Paris - the art and cultural capital of the world. This museum is housed in the Louvre Palace, so you know that it is grand and contains stuff which interests only a few people. Sure most of us will get bored immediately but for some, this place is kind of like a treasure cove of err...treasures. Among its many artifacts, it contains 380,000 objects and displays 35,000 works of art in eight curatorial departments - Egyptian antiquities, Near Eastern antiquities, Greek, Etruscan, Roman, Islamic art, Sculptures, Decorative arts and paintings. Oh, it also includes very famous painting - The Mona Lisa. No matter what, I still don't get it why this painting seems to capture the imagination of artists everywhere. Perhaps it is because I am not that artistic myself. |
