14.✓See the Mona Lisa.
The Mona Lisa is probably one of the most famous paintings in the world. For me I have wanted to see it for a vary long time. But there is better then the Mona Lisa even other paintings in the Louvre are a lot cooler in my mind, but that doesn’t mean it’s still not on my list. I’m happy to see it especially since when I was there it wasn’t such a busy day so there wasn’t a huge lineup. But it still is incredibly underwhelming…….. Sorry
Honestly the Mona Lisa as I say is a little underwhelming but it is not the worst thing in the world by any means.
The artistry and the technical prowess of the painting is still very apparent. It’s just a long lineups and the tourist snap hundreds of photos granted me and Rachel were a part of those tourist but the rest of the museum was as incredible of a place, way better than the Mona Lisa itself.
Where the Mona Lisa hits home for me is the history. The coloured history of being on the wall of napoleons bedroom. The man who wanted to have sex with it and everything in between.
It’s a beautiful painting with an amazing past and I’m happy I got a crossed off my bucket list, especially since how iconic it is. It’s very apparent it’s one of those things you can say that you did in your life 20 years in the future and you and others go oh that’s pretty cool.
I hope you guys like this short little post it’s nothing too serious on this one I’m happy I did it I love you all and I’ll see you on the next post. Remember to follow your dreams no matter how small or big they are
