The Louvre
We managed just enough time to pop over to the Louvre. I love history, so long as I’m not being graded on it.
I wish that I could have had another hour or two just to really take it all in. So many gorgeous historical artifacts…so little time.
Not sure why, but I really loved this painting. Turned out that it's a portrait of the man, postmortem. I wondered if it was from a previous painting, or if they opened his eyes to capture his likeness? Were his hands really that large? Could be, since his ears were also large. Makes sense. I don't know, but I know that he died. And I also know he once lived and he was loved by someone.
