It’s so annoying if you AREN’T there to take a picture of it. We were in Paris last year and went to the Musee d’Orsay but didn’t go to the Louvre. We like to stand and appreciate the artwork, taking in the beauty of them. It was so hard to do with any painting even remotely famous, since there were lines of people pushing to the front to take the best possible picture of it (which has already been taken by pro photographers). They weren’t even looking at the painting, just their phone’s screen as they took the picture then walked away. I’m just standing still looking forward, and they would shoulder me aside to get a better photo then walk away. Other paintings just as pretty? Who cares, not famous.
