The Louvre is not only one of the best art museums in the world, it’s also one of the biggest. There are 35,000 objects on display out of a collection of 380,000. In architectural terms, the Louvre is made of cut stone and is a vast complex of wings and pavilions on four main levels. Despite appearing to be unified, it is in fact the result of many phases of building, modification, destruction, and restoration that took place over several centuries.
When you go inside the museum, the collection is divided among eight curatorial departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; Prints and Drawings.
