My Plan for the Louvre:

I’ll start my visit to the Louvre with the Costume Exhibition. This is located in the Department of Decorative Arts in the Richelieu Wing. I’m eager to see the intricate designs and historical significance of the costumes, as they showcase not just artistry but also the social and cultural histories behind them. I’ll spend about 30 minutes here.

Next, I’ll head to see the Master Paintings and Sculptures in the Denon Wing, home to some of the most iconic works of art. I plan to see the Mona Lisa (Leonardo da Vinci) and then explore the Grande Galerie for other Renaissance paintings. While here, I’ll also visit The Wedding at Cana by Veronese, which is a large, iconic painting.

After enjoying the paintings, I’ll take some time to admire the sculptures in the Cour Marly, followed by a visit to The Winged Victory of Samothrace. I’ll also make sure to see Venus de Milo, the iconic depiction of Aphrodite.

After about 90 minutes of exploring, I’ll head to the Café Richelieu-Angelina, located on the Richelieu Wing’s first floor. It’s an elegant café with views over the Cour Napoléon and the pyramid. Here, I’ll relax with a coffee and one of their famous pastries, like the Mont-Blanc, giving me time to recharge for the second half of my visit.

Refreshed, I’ll head to some other important points of interest:

• The Napoleon III Apartments in the Richelieu Wing, to marvel at the opulence of 19th-century French interiors.
• The Egyptian Antiquities in the Sully Wing, where I can see the Great Sphinx of Tanis and other treasures from ancient Egypt.
• Finally, a quick walk through the Medieval Louvre section in the Sully Wing basement, where I can see the remnants of the Louvre’s original fortress.
