I realized yesterday that having been here for almost two and half months, i had only been to the Louvre Museum once. So since it was late opening friday i thought i'd go for a wander and see what there was to see. It's pretty easy to get in at night, the really big hoards have all gone and with the automated ticket machines there's hardly a line up at all. There were quite a few art classes going on, students drawing from statues or paintings, and it was interesting to check out their work. Thats what those people just over my shoulder, sitting on the floor, are doing. Here's my Louvre selfie....
Didn't i take this selfie in the British Museum?
And the Napoleon Apartments were very dim and sparkly at night....
As was the Apollo Gallery.....
And the sisters, by Chasseriau were still just where i'd left them.....
Then it's back out into the Paris night, my head stuffed with art, the moon nearly full, to walk home along the river.
