Only saw a small portion of the Louvre while I was there. Would take a couple of weeks or more to do the entire place in full and appreciate its contents. But, then again, many museums are like this. That is why I prefer the small ones.

How lucky you are to have had the opportunity to visit the Louvre, I tossed a coin as what I would like to see before I fall off the perch - Europe or American National Parks and America won. :) :) This pic of the Mona Lisa is a classic.

Children play around a herd of life-size elephant figures created by the international conservation charity Elephant Family, on display at Sudeley Castle in Gloucestershire. The 30 plus hand carved wooden elephants will be at the grounds of the castle for ix weeks, before heading to London at the end of May to spend eight weeks in the Royal Parks.

Italian artist Bruno Walpoth creates unbelievably lifelike sculptures of people with wood. The rings and knots in each piece of wood that the sculptor works with adds an artistic element to the completed figure. All at once, they mimic the textured imperfections of humans and give a figurative spirit to the trees from which it came.

Were there in the 1980's. That's all I really remember, is seeing Mona Lisa.

A lot of pictures had video narrative that would tell you about each picture's history/meaning.
