Beautiful!
Great app-- switch to English by pressing th screen when the video is running--then,select English from the icons that appear.
Sparse content
Not bad, but is mainly an advertisement for the museum.
There are only about 20 or so pieces in the artworks section. And the video narration is in French.
At least it's free.
Good review of the Louvre
This is a good app if you want to see a very small portion of this museum. There is a great deal more to see in person, which I highly recommend. My only complaints are that it needs more content, and the videos need to be in English like the writting is.
