Macron says Mona Lisa to be moved as part of Louvre overhaul happymamay

An international competition for a second entrance to the Louvre Museum in Paris will be held to reduce the increasing pressure of visitors’ numbers under the famous glass pyramid.

This advertisement was the highest point of President Emmanuel Macron’s speech – which was made by an audience of prominent figures against the Mona Lisa – in which the new Renaissance project was identified for the most frequency world museum.

The other main change that will be presented by 2031 will be the transfer of the Mona Lisa to a new width space, which visitors will be shipped separately for the visit.

Customs tariff changes will also be offered from January, so the inhabitants of non -European Union will be paid to enter the museum.

Macron was giving his response to warnings from Lawrence Dis output that the museum was suffering from serious problems in overcrowding and failed infrastructure.

In a message to the government, which was published earlier this month, Ms. Dess Cars said that the pyramid – which since 1989 included a unique access point to the exhibitions – was “structurally able to overcome” with the number of visitors that now reach more From nine million a year.

“In the opinion of everyone, the Mona Lisa showed … it is something to look at,” she said.

About three quarters of the museum’s daily visitor, go to see the Leonardo Da Vinci painting, but the experience has become a test of endurance, as a continuous crowd is converted via SL de Etes and gets 50 seconds on average to monitor the image and take the image pictures.

“The audience … has no way to understand the artist’s work, which raises questions about our full task of public service,” said Ms. Des Karz in her message.

Under the Macron Project, the museum’s eastern interface – which consists of today from a classic colonic expanded by an artificial trench and a small use series – will be redesigned.

A new entrance will allow immediate access to new areas of underground exhibitions below Courté, which will in turn continue with the area below the pyramid.

Macron said that the new front – the biggest change in the museum since the Bransua Mitran project in Lovri in Grand Lovri 40 years ago – will be linked to the city’s plans to create a “green” area filled with trees on Esplanade.

He said he would help integrate the museum into the city and “bring it back to the Parisians.”

He added that the removal of the Mona Lisa from its current location will allow the museum to provide it properly, and facilitate the display of other masterpieces, which “is often ignored”, offered in Salle Des Etats.

The main renewal work will also be implemented in the coming years to update the infrastructure, providing the toilet, restaurant and new comfort.

The total cost is placed in several hundred euros.

Macron said that the project will not cost the taxpayer anything, as it will be funded through ticket sales and donations and the museum’s sponsorship agreement with the Louvre Abu Dhabi.

His powers have reduced greatly since it lost control of the French parliament six months ago, and the president has been looking for a new issue to ensure his legacy.

Its leadership, which was widely praised, seems to have a lot of shooting after the Nuterdam Cathedral has sparked his appetite for a similar cultural project. The Lotvre.
