Along with the Metropolitan Museum in New York and the Hermitage in Saint Petersburg, the Louvre is one of the three largest museums in the world. A complete visit to all of its collections would probably take a very conscientious art lover about a week to complete. So instead of talking here about all the works on display, we have selected its nine most emblematic and famous masterpieces to begin to discover this amazing institution. This “masterpiece tour” will begin with the discovery of the Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace, before moving on to David’s monumental Coronation of the Emperor Napoleon, Leonardo’s Mona Lisa, Veronese’s Wedding Feast at Cana, Géricault’s Raft of the Méduse, Delacroix’s Liberty Guiding the People, the Slaves sculpted by Michelangelo and Coysevox and Coustou’s Marly Horses.
