How To Virtually Tour of Paris’ Louvre & See Every Masterpiece
If you’re an art enthusiast, the Louvre is probably at the top of your Paris or museum wish list.

However, as you might imagine, visiting the Louvre can be quite the experience.
It’s often packed with crowds, flashing cameras, selfie sticks, and people bustling around or trying to touch the art. This can make it feel a bit chaotic and overwhelming.
But there’s good news! You can now explore the Louvre from the comfort of your home, avoiding the hustle and bustle.
I’ll guide you through how to virtually visit this iconic museum and view all its must-see masterpieces. Get ready to enjoy your personal Leonardo or Michelangelo experience in peaceful solitude.
Layout of the Louvre
The Louvre is a U shape, divided into three wings: Denon, Sully, and Richelieu. Each of the wings has four floors.
The Denon Wing is home to the Louvre’s best known art work, including the world’s most famous painting, the Mona Lisa .
The Sully Wing is known for its statuary and antiquities.
The Richelieu Wing houses the lavish apartments of Napoleon III and some famed Dutch art works.
Virtual Tour of Louvre Masterpieces
Let’s take an online virtual tour of the Louvre, wing by wing.
You can see all the must see masterpieces via 360 video tours, YouTube videos, or online tours on the Louvre Website itself. For a lengthy overall YouTube tour of the Louvre, click here .
The Denon Wing
The Denon Wing is the most visited part of the Louvre. It boasts the fabulously ornate Apollo Gallery, with high arches and frescoed ceilings.
It’s a shrine to Sun King Louis XIV. The paintings were begun by Charles Le Brun and completed by Eugene Delacroix.
1. French Paintings in the Denon Wing
The Denon Wing is most renowned for its iconic French paintings from the Neoclassical and Romantic periods of art history. The must see French masterpieces include:
- Eugene Delacroix, Liberty Leading the People
- Jacques-Louis David, The Coronation of Napoleon
- Theodore Gericault, Raft of the Medusa
- Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, Grand Odalisque
You can take a virtual tour of the recently restored Apollo Gallery on the Louvre’s website here . You can learn about the Coronation of Napoleon from this Louvre YouTuber .

Via my blog, you can also explore the Louvre’s underrated masterpieces in the Denon Wing.
I also have a guide to what I think is the best painting in the Louvre , Gericault’s Raft of the Medusa , a then-scandalous painting based on a true story.
2. Italian Paintings in the Denon Wing
The Denon Wing also boasts treasures from the Italian Renaissance.
This is where you’ll find works by Sandro Botticelli , Leonardo da Vinci , Raphael , and Titian. The must see masterpieces include:
- Leonardo Da Vinci, Mona Lisa
- Leonardo Da Vinci, The Virgin and Child With St. Anne
- Titian, Pastoral Concert
- Raphael, Portrait of Baldasarre Castiglione

3. Sculptures in the Denon Wing
If you prefer sculpture to painting, the Denon Wing has one of the world’s most magnificent sculptures — the Winged Victory of Samothrac e.
It also has a room on the ground dedicated to Italian sculpture, the Michelangelo Gallery. It’s one of my favorites spots in the Louvre.
It’s home to Michelangelo’s Dying Slave and Rebellious Slave , from 1513-15. These sculptures seem to struggle to escape the marble.
They were originally intended for the Tomb of Pope Julius II in Rome. But Michelangelo got distracted with the ceiling of the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel and could never finish the tomb.

You can also find Antonio Canova’s incredibly romantic Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss . It’s considered Canova’s master work.
You can take a virtual tour of Michelangelo’s Slaves here , a virtual tour of Canova’s work on Google Arts & Culture , and a virtual tour of Canova’s Psyche here . You can take a virtual 360 tour of the Winged Victory here .
2. The Sully Wing
In the Sully Wing, you’ll find some of the world’s most beautiful sculptures, antiquities, and the remains of the Medieval Louvre.
One of the Louvre’s greatest ladies, a Hellenistic masterpiece, is here — the Venus de Milo . Even without arms, Venus de Milo is considered the classical epitome of female beauty.
You can also see another masterwork, Sleeping Hermaphrodite , a mythological merger of a male and female body. The ancient sculpture was discovered in Rome near the Baths of Diocletian.
Cardinal Scipione Borghese commissioned the Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini to carve the mattress in 1619. He later sold the piece to the French when he was strapped for cash.

The Egyptian Antiquities are a well loved highlight of the Sully Wing. The collection features the 12 ton Great Sphinx of Tanis, model ships, ancient sculptures, a massive statue of Ramses II, and a sarcophagus room.
The medieval Louvre is also a fascinating place. Originally, the Louvre was a 12th century fortress built by King Philippe Auguste.
The lower levels are all that remain. Archeologists discovered and excavated the underground medieval remains during the construction of I.M. Pei’s pyramid in 1983-85.
You can take a virtual tour of all the Louvre’s Roman Antiquities here , the Venus de Milo here , and the Sleeping Hermaphrodite here . You can take a virtual tour of the famed Egyptian Antiquities here and walk around the Medieval Louvre here .
3. The Richelieu Wing
In Richelieu Wing, you can admire the Louvre’s Mesopotamian Antiquities, Napoleon III’s Second Empire rooms, sculptures, and some amazing Dutch masterpieces.
The Richelieu Wing boasts the spectacular Cour Marly, a spacious glass roofed courtyard.
It’s stuffed with 17th and 18th marble and white stone sculptures, many commissioned by Sun King Louis XIV and Louis XV. There’s also a magnificent Fountain of Diana, dating from 1550.
Perhaps the most famous part of the Richelieu Wing is the Napoleon III apartments. They were built between 1852-57 to accommodate visiting dignitaries. They’re sumptuous.
Crystal chandeliers glitter, gilded furniture gleams, and the ceilings sport beautiful frescos — all set amid red velvet and red drapery. The Rococo state dining room could seat almost 100 people.

A new digital database features 480,000 works from the Paris museum’s holdings

![museo del louvre tour online Aerial view of the Louvre Museum](https://th-thumbnailer.cdn-si-edu.com/Tc1jdNaxcUTzvLAx0LK7wg74LSA=/1000x750/filters:no_upscale():focal(1053x663:1054x664)/https://tf-cmsv2-smithsonianmag-media.s3.amazonaws.com/filer/80/79/80798363-797c-438b-8a83-737594f2f09f/louvre_museum_228021559.jpeg)
When cultural institutions around the world were forced to shutter last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic , even the most popular art museum in the world felt the effects. The Louvre , home to such masterpieces as the Mona Lisa , welcomed just 2.7 million visitors in 2020—a 72 percent drop from 2019, when 9.6 million people flocked to the Paris museum.
But even as physical museums remained closed, art enthusiasts continued to seek inspiration in new ways : In that same pandemic year, 21 million people visited the Louvre’s website, according to a statement .
Thanks to a major website redesign and a new online collection database, browsing the historic museum’s holdings from home is easier than ever, reports Alaa Elassar for CNN . For the first time ever, the Louvre’s entire art collection is available to search online. The updated catalogue boasts more than 480,000 entries, from rare items stowed away in storage to the iconic Venus de Milo and Winged Victory of Samothrace . (Though the digital database is free to browse, offerings are not open access , meaning users cannot directly download, share or reuse the images.)
“Today, the Louvre is dusting off its treasures, even the least-known,” says the museum’s president, Jean-Luc Martinez, in the statement. “… [A]nyone can access the entire collection of works from a computer or smartphone for free, whether they are on display in the museum, on loan, even long-term, or in storage.”
Martinez adds, “The Louvre’s stunning cultural heritage is all now just a click away.”
Viewers can also click through an interactive map of the museum, virtually walking through the cavernous halls of the Renaissance castle or the sleek steel-and-glass pyramid designed by American architect I.M. Pei in 1989.
![museo del louvre tour online A screenshot of various small squares with works of art, including the Mona Lisa on far right, a mummy portrait from ancient Egypt and a 16th century sculpture of a "rebellious slave"](https://th-thumbnailer.cdn-si-edu.com/-AKWXPIK5n0XZtGVUgyV4wabTaY=/fit-in/1072x0/https://tf-cmsv2-smithsonianmag-media.s3.amazonaws.com/filer/d7/96/d796ab0e-a74e-48e5-b411-d6daa1271bf9/screen_shot_2021-03-29_at_25952_pm.png)
Previously, the public only had access to about 30,000 listings of works in the Louvre’s collections, reports Vincent Noce for the Art Newspaper . Per France24 , more than three-quarters of the entries in the Louvre’s online collection contain images and label information. The museum plans to continue to expand and improve the database in the coming months.
The archive also includes the collections of the Musée National Eugène-Delacroix , which is run by the Louvre, and the nearby Tuileries Garden , as well as a number of Nazi-looted artworks that are in the process of being returned to their original owners’ families.
According to the new online catalogue , about 61,000 works stolen by the Nazis were retrieved from Germany and brought back to France after World War II. Of these works, 45,000 have been returned to their rightful owners. A number of others were sold by the French state. The remaining 2,143 unclaimed works were categorized as National Museum Recovery (MNR) and entrusted to French cultural institutions, including the Louvre, for safekeeping.
Despite the Louvre’s involvement in repatriation efforts, lingering concerns remain that Nazi-looted art may have made its way into the Louvre’s permanent collections during the war. Since hiring curator Emmanuelle Polack to lead a wartime provenance research project in January 2020, the Louvre has checked nearly two-thirds of the 13,943 works it acquired between 1933 and 1945, Martinez tells the Art Newspaper .
In the future, the museum plans to debut the findings of this research project on its website. The director notes that he has instructed curators to conduct a similar investigation of the thousands of artworks in the Louvre’s collections that hail from countries formerly under French control, such as Algeria, Tunisia, Syria and Lebanon.
The goal of this long-term project, he says, will be to identify which items in the Louvre’s encyclopedic collections were obtained through looting or colonial violence.
“Our collections are mostly archaeological and come from digs shared with the countries of origin,” Martinez tells the Art Newspaper , adding that the museum often obtained new archives through “bilateral” legal agreements.
At the same time, Martinez adds, “[M]useums like the Louvre served imperial ambitions and we have to deal with this history.”

10 Tips For Visiting The Louvre (Paris, France)
T he Louvre, a treasure trove of art and history nestled in the heart of Paris, is a must-visit for any art enthusiast or traveler. With its vast collection spanning centuries and cultures, exploring the Louvre can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. To ensure you make the most of your visit, here are 10 essential tips to navigate this iconic museum.
1. Plan Ahead
Begin your Louvre adventure by planning ahead. The museum is colossal, and attempting to see everything in one visit can be daunting. Research the Louvre's layout, highlight the must-see artworks, and create a personalized itinerary. Prioritize your interests, be it Renaissance paintings, ancient sculptures, or Egyptian artifacts, to tailor your visit accordingly.
2. Purchase Tickets in Advance
Save valuable time by purchasing your tickets online in advance. The Louvre is immensely popular, and the lines can be exceptionally long. Opting for skip-the-line tickets allows you to breeze through the entrance and dive straight into the cultural wonders awaiting you inside.
3. Visit Off-Peak Hours
To maximize your enjoyment and minimize the crowds, consider visiting during off-peak hours. Early mornings or late afternoons on weekdays are ideal times to explore the Louvre with a bit more tranquility. You'll have a better chance to appreciate the masterpieces without the hustle and bustle.
4. Take Advantage of Guided Tours
Engage in the expertise of a guided tour to gain deeper insights into the Louvre's vast collection. Knowledgeable guides can provide historical context, fascinating anecdotes, and help you navigate the expansive museum efficiently. Some tours even offer exclusive access to certain areas, enhancing your overall experience.

5. Wear Comfortable Attire
Prepare for a day of walking and exploration by wearing comfortable clothing and footwear. The Louvre's sheer size requires a fair amount of walking, and comfortable attire will ensure you stay energized and focused on the art rather than discomfort.
6. Focus on the Highlights
With over 35,000 pieces on display, it's crucial to focus on the highlights to avoid feeling overwhelmed. The Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and the Winged Victory of Samothrace are among the Louvre's star attractions. Identify your must-see artworks and plan your route accordingly.

7. Bring Snacks and Stay Hydrated
Exploring the Louvre can be a time-consuming endeavor, and hunger or dehydration can dampen your experience. Pack some snacks and a reusable water bottle to keep yourself fueled and refreshed throughout your visit. There are designated areas where you can take a break and enjoy a snack.
8. Respect Art Etiquette
While admiring the masterpieces, it's essential to observe proper art etiquette. Refrain from touching the artwork, use flash photography, or creating disturbances. Respectful behavior ensures a pleasant experience for you and fellow art enthusiasts.
9. Explore Beyond the Obvious
While the Louvre's iconic pieces are undoubtedly breathtaking, don't hesitate to explore beyond the obvious. Wander through lesser-known galleries and hidden corners to discover hidden gems and lesser-known treasures. You might stumble upon artworks that resonate with you on a personal level.
10. Reflect and Relax
After immersing yourself in the richness of the Louvre, take some time to reflect and relax. Find a peaceful spot in the museum's expansive courtyard, the Cour Carrée, or nearby Tuileries Garden. Absorb the cultural magnitude of your visit and savor the memories created within the walls of this historic institution.
Conclusion:
A visit to the Louvre in Paris is an unforgettable journey through time and art. By planning ahead, utilizing skip-the-line tickets, and embracing these tips, you can transform your Louvre experience into a seamless and enriching adventure. Navigate the labyrinth of artistic wonders with confidence, and let the Louvre's magnificence leave an indelible mark on your travel memories.

🇫🇷 Inspectons les œuvres du musée avec #LouvreALaLoupe ! Aujourd’hui, intéressons-nous au Discobole finlandais ! 🔍
🕰️ Prêté par l’@institutdefrance dans le cadre de l’exposition « L’Olympisme. Une invention moderne, un héritage antique », ce bronze est une réplique de petite taille du Discobole, plus grand que nature, qui valut au sculpteur Costas Dimitriadis le 1er prix au concours de sculpture des VIIIe jeux Olympiques en 1924 à Paris, la seule médaille remportée par la Grèce lors de ces JO.

🇫🇷 Le musée du #Louvre participe au #ConnectingCollections, qui se concentre ce mois-ci sur le commerce maritime dans le monde antique. Nous vous présentons aujourd’hui cette terre cuite découverte à Chypre.
🛶 De forme très simple, caractérisée par une coque oblongue et un taille-mer à l’avant de l’étrave, cette maquette de bateau en terre cuite produite par un atelier d’Amathonte évoque toute l’ampleur du commerce maritime dans lequel est impliquée l’île de Chypre depuis la deuxième moitié du 2e millénaire avant J.-C. - 🕰️ L’augmentation du nombre de représentations de bateaux dans l’île coïncide avec l’essor du commerce outremer, mais aussi avec celui de l’exploitation du minerai de cuivre, principale source de la richesse de l’île. Cette maquette, très semblable aux modèles de bateaux du début 7e siècle avant J.-C. découverts avec d’autres figurines en terre cuite, se rattache très probablement à Chypre à des pratiques religieuses similaires, en lien avec la « Grande Déesse », entre autre protectrice des marchands et des navigateurs. - 📍 Venez découvrir cette œuvre en salle 316 de l’aille Sully.

👀 L’Ivoire dit Barberini constituait à l’origine une partie d’un diptyque impérial. Sa forme complexe, la très haute qualité de son exécution et son iconographie, qui exalte la gloire d’un empereur chrétien, en font une œuvre majeure du premier art byzantin.
