When I went to the Louvre and saw the Mona Lisa, I was in a big crowd huddled around it behind stanchions with two guards on either side. It’s a cool painting, and it’s cool to say I saw it in person I guess, but the museum itself is fucking HUGE. I don’t think I even saw all of it that one day, and we were there for a few hours.
I took a picture of it through another guy’s phone in front of me. He was about to take a picture, as he held up his phone for a good angle, and I snapped it as it was on his screen.

Now that’s art.
I heard somewhere that it would take a person 6-8 months to watch every exhibit in The Louvre.
