View for near the top of the Centre Pompidou. Another one of those galleries with 5 floors & 2 levels of art.
The modern art was fabulous - but where is it all. 20th century artists - Francis Bacon, Kandinsky, Klee, Matisse ...
Off the Louvre after lunch. Confusing place get around. At least full of totally wonderful pieces. Amazing ancient Egyptian & Greek things.
Went out for a drink and to collect washing - even on holidays domestics can intervene.
Back to the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa. Unbelievably crowded in front of it. No doubt a masterwork, but with all the buildup a little underwhelming.
The art in the rooms leading to it were wonderful almost beyond belief though.
Leonardo's, Giotto, Fra Filippo Lippi, Ucello, Veronese, Titian, Delacroix Amazing+++.
