The Louvre is a palace that used to be owned by the kings and queens of France, which is now an art gallery.
The most famous paintings in the Louvre is the Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci. The Mona Lisa is about five hundred years old. I think the Mona Lisa is very small compared with other masterpieces (like Gurnica.)
We also saw some other artworks like: Napolitan I crowning him self, Jesus in Venice, where he works his first miracle, and other interesting artworks like that.
The Louvre is very interesting and very, very big. (Probably because it used to be a palace.) We went home on a very, very crowded subway.

Wow, Mel! That sounds so exciting! I thought that museum had something to do with the Mona Lisa.

You are very discerning now, Mel, being able to compare one famous art work with another. Sometimes a thing is so well-known that it can be a little disappointing when you see it in the flesh, so to speak.
ReplyDeleteVery, very crowded subways may be your least favourite means of transport. Anyway when you get back to Nelson it will be easy to avoid them.
