Day in the Louvre

At the end of December was in the Louvre. There are constantly huge lines and, therefore, even living in Paris, was there only the second time there. I was lucky with a ticket! I received it as a gift - a ticket for which you do not need to stand in line!

The Louvre is very miserably arranged. You can grow up there without a guide, although a Russian guide came up to me in the lobby and proposed an excursion. I decided to study the plan on my own and I managed to go around the Louvre in a few hours. He seemed to me, even not so big!

I visited all the masterpieces proposed to look at the plan and marked with special points. This is very exciting, since following it, your campaign is simplified.

The other day, just watched a film about Leonardo da Vinci, he wrote his monolis for 10 years, as he was often busy with other projects to earn a living. Constantly wandering around in search of earnings or patron. He made many discoveries incredible for that time, but when they were deciphered, almost everything was already known. He was famous as a person who is taking up everything and does not finish anything (due to a lack of funds!). By the way, the Italian artist in France was buried, I was in his place of burial.

Also, I found the work of the Dutch artist Jacob Cape ( Jacob Cuyp ), you can also see Kotryoy in the Kadriorg Museum in Tallinn. Moreover, work in Tallinn is more juicy. Here is a Parisian option for you:

Here from the quadriorg work on the same topic:

I recommend buying tickets to all museums of Paris on the Internet, and cheaper, and the queue is less :)

From any window of the Louvre - also, only masterpieces!

The photos are taken by the iPhon, do not scold :) Although, everywhere in museums you can take pictures of constant expositions, and you can’t use a flash categorically. Unfortunately, many visitors ignore this, and the museum workers are not able to control everything due to the Bolshow Collinism of the people. Flays spoil the paintings, but visitors think, sometimes, only about their photographs ...

Success! Think about the descendants and turn off the flashes! :)
