While we spent more time last year looking at the paintings and the Egyptian exhibits, this year we looked at more sculptures.  This is but a fraction of what the Louvre has to offer, from rooms full of tapestries large enough to cover a small house, to unimaginable amount of ornate gold trinkets large and small.  Bronze and ivory by the tone, marble of every colour and shape.  Our wish is to be back soon for a week or so to really see the Louvre and the splendour it has to offer.
