    Surprisingly, I thought the painting was larger. But, still is magnificent and mysteriously beautiful. Hope will go to Paris someday and see it closer. Thanks for the video!

      in person I thought it was bigger than pictured also back when the wall was granite or marble I guess in this video it was moved to that white kiosk style wall now it’s in the same place as before but the walls are black

    The Mona Lisa painting pales in comparison to all the other paintings in the room, but yet people are focused only on Mona Lisa.

      You act like some random bozo drew it in the 1980's. Leonardo himself drew it so its just as grand as any other of his paintings.

    Seeing her at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City during a 4th grade field trip was an amazing and very emotional experience. The following year we took a field trip to New York's 1964-65 World's Fair and saw Michaelangelo's masterpiece 'La Pieta' from only five feet away. Breathtaking! Those visits led to a lifelong quest to enjoy art museums in the U.S, Canada, and throughout most of Europe! When I visited La Louvre in 1987 the glare of the bright overhead lights were terrible. The huge crowds also made seeing her difficult. Now she is in a different gallery with a queue so it is much better organized. I was so lucky to see her twice!

    You still probably cant heal for now. If u can, then thats good for you. All we can hold on to is the future, so lets just focus on that because thats the practical means.
    Lets cooperate with each other. I will heal you once i can. Just be more optimistic because you still have that goodness in you. You are someone who is always conscious about whats right and whats wrong...so u know what, you deserve to be saved.

The walls of gallery 711 were a tan colour prior to the renovation but now sport a dark blue covering. We visited in November, 2019, and the ML was back in 711.

    My name is Yoshikage Kira. I’m 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don’t smoke, but I occasionally drink. I’m in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning.
    I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I’m trying to explain that I’m a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn’t lose to anyone.
