Macron answered the warning of the director of Louvre Laurence de car that the museum suffered from serious overpopulation and unsuccessful infrastructure.
In a letter to the government, which was announced earlier this month, Ms de -Cars said the year.
She also said that “according to everyone, Mona Lisa’s presentation …” That’s what to look at. “
About three quarters of 30,000 visitors to the museum go to see the picture of Leonardo da Vinci, but this experience has become a test of endurance, and the permanent crowd passed through Salle des etats and got an average of 50 seconds to watch the picture and take photos.
“The public … It is not possible to make sense of the artist’s work, which raises questions throughout our civil service,” said Ms de Cars in her letter.
As part of the Macron project, the eastern facade of the museum – consisting of a classic colonade today, which is transformed by artificial moat and slightly used esplonade – will be remodeled.
A new entrance path will give immediate access to new underground exhibition premises under the Carré course, which in turn will connect with the area under the pyramid.
Macron said the new front is the biggest change in the museum since the great project of President François Mitterrand 40 years ago – will contact the city’s plans to create an “green” area on the Esplane.
He said he would help integrate the museum into the city and “return it to the Parisians.”
He added that the removal of Mona Lisa from his current position will allow the museum to properly present it and facilitate the viewing of other masterpieces that are “too often ignored” at the Salle des etats.
In the coming years, the main repair works will also be carried out to modernize infrastructure and provide a new toilet, restaurant and rest premises.
The total cost consists of several hundred million euros.
Macron said the project would not cost the taxpayers, as it will be financed by selling tickets, donations, as well as a museum’s sponsorship transaction from the Louvre Abu Dobby.
His powers declined significantly after the loss of control of the French parliament six months ago, the president is looking for a new case with which he assured his heritage.
It seems that its very high leadership in the repair of the Cathedral of Notre Dame appears to have pushed its appetite to a similar cultural large project “Louvre”.
