Inside the Louvre Museum was the Mona Lisa painting. It’s protected by bullet proof glass and a security guard beside it and tons of people crowded to take a glimpse of the painting. This is the best picture i can get.

A lot of nudity paintings and sculptures. It seems that back in the days the Italians, French & Spanish painters embrace the human body a lot.
