Louvre and Cluny

    I had somehow gone for 2 1/2 months without going to the Louvre...It was a very over-due visit.
I really liked the Louvre, but because I tried to go through it in one day, it was a bit overwhelming. So, I decided to focus on my favorite bits: sculptures and paintings. 




?
   I found it a bit confusing as to why some pieces were more famous than their neighbors when they were of a similar subject, medium, and time period. I guess it's the story behind the piece that makes it special?
The Mona Lisa


Later that week I also revisited the Cluny museum! It was just as exciting the second time. 

Monty Python, anyone?
