The Ceilings of the Louvre

Not hard to believe, but in a palatial place like the Louvre, even the ceilings look good!  No “popcorn” or swirled ceilings in this place.  Most of them are painted, carved, or sculpted in such a way that they almost rival the artwork hanging on the walls.  Flash photography is prohibited in the Louvre, and you cannot use a tripod either, so some of these photos may look slightly dark or blurred.  Double-click on a photo to enlarge it.
