But yes, there are no information whatsoever on the Louvre website and I had to research thoughfully to find a press release saying the icons were in Denon aisle, room 172. At the information desk, they confirmed it and there are some posters in the stairs when you go to the Denon part of the museum (but it's easy for me to tell you all that since I live in Paris and often go to the Louvre — and I agree with you about the attendants who seems to ignore where they work and don't care about it). On other words, from the Pyramide, you go through ancient Greece (Cyclads artifacts), you pass the Islamic Art on your right, and there you are.<br />The icons are in a well lit room painted in a fine dark blue with commentaries in French, English and Ukrainian. As there are only five of them, and rather small, the explanations on the wall in front of them are very long and pedagogical (I visited with a friend who knew nothing about icons and she was really interested by the texts).<br />I agree with you that the main surprise comes from these four Sinai icons, 1500 years old at least, not only because their colors are so fresh but because the look so much like the Fayoum mummies portraits (some are exposed not very far from our icons) — especially the one with St Plato and Glykeria portraits which looks like the product of some popular vernacular artist, a feeling that you don't meet when you look at the other icons, much more classical.<br />To end with, this exhibition announces the creation of a Department of Byzantine and Oriental Christian Arts in the Louvre, scheduled to open in 2027, which is very good news (ok, 2027 is far away…) since Byzantine arts are dispersed between several departments, and icons relegated in a very small room to the end of the Great Gallery, next to the Spanish painting, and closed most of the time.catherine darleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05693132012083884186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565845984512808077.post-13920307696275706582023-03-25T23:18:42.281+01:002023-03-25T23:18:42.281+01:00Well, Mt.
