À propos de cet audio
A former New York Times Paris bureau chief explores the Louvre, offering an intimate journey of discovery and revelation.
The Louvre is the most famous museum in the world, attracting millions of visitors every year with its masterpieces. In Adventures in the Louvre, Elaine Sciolino immerses herself in this magical space and helps us fall in love with what was once a forbidding fortress.
Exploring galleries, basements, rooftops, and gardens, Sciolino demystifies the Louvre, introducing us to her favorite artworks, both legendary and overlooked, and to the people who are the museum's lifeblood: the curators, the artisans producing frames and engravings, the builders overseeing restorations, the firefighters protecting the aging structure.
Blending investigative journalism, travelogue, history, and memoir, Sciolino walks listeners through the museum's front gates and immerses them in its irresistible, engrossing world of beauty and culture. Adventures in the Louvre reveals the secrets of this grand monument of Paris and basks in its timeless, seductive power.

Absolutely divine!
What an absolutely delightful book! Thank you Elaine for writing it. I have already fallen in love with The Louvre, having visited twice. Now, I feel like I have enjoyed a delicious third visit. All you would expect, plus how to get as much of the Louvre if you drop by on a Tuesday, when it is closed (there is more than I knew). My only complaint was that it ended so soon. I will listen again, for sure… there are so many details.
The Audible version would be enhanced with a PDF accompaniment of the appendix of artists and works that is included in the printed and Kindle versions.
