Every year, nearly fifteen million persons travel his galleries, which opened in 1793 and in those who today exhibit 35 thousand pieces, between which The Gioconda stands out, of Leonardo da Vinci. And until January, 2010, in addition to supporting his everlasting collections, the Louvre will give him a special place to paintings of the Venice of the XVIth century, with the sample “Titien, Tintoret, Véronése … Rivalités á Venise”.

To cover the Museum in only one day is perhaps an exploit that few ones can make real. And that of course has not greatly sense. The fact is that to enjoy each of the works that are exhibited, it is necessary to reduce the step and to dedicate time to the contemplation. The Louvre is a proprietor of a collection of fine arts, works of archaeology, decorative arts and sculptures that come from the effort of the real collecting and of the men of the Enlightenment and of the French Revolution.

His opening was a milestone inside the history, since one thanked to the transfer of the collections deprived of the monarchy, the aristocracy and the Church. It was a precedent that determined a way that, later, many European museums continued and of the United States. The building that lodges the Louvre is the ancient real palace of the Louvre, constructed in the XIIth century and embellished then with Renaissance enlargement and of other more late expressions, and it is completed, from 1989, with a construction that turned symbol: a modern crystal pyramid. This way, the Museum of the Louvre opened his doors for the world more than two hundred years ago and, from that one then, without doubts a visit to Paris will not be finished without a step along these galleries.
