About this experience
With 35,000+ works, the Louvre is for aficionados and novices alike. But, it is also an endless maze for new visitors. Imagine the delight of breezing into the must-see masterpieces of the Western canon led by an expert who is not only a licensed guide but also a painter. From observing the flowy folds of Winged Victory to uncovering the aesthetic secrets of the Mona Lisa, we will engage with art, intimately. In a tiny group of maximum 6 visitors, we will unravel the artistry behind these timeless creations, breathing life into each stroke and detail. Traverse the corridors of time and trace the evolution of art from Greek Antiquity to the Italian Renaissance. Imagine seeing the Louvre through the eyes of an artist. Together, we will understand painting techniques in a manner understandable for all audiences and gain unique insight.
