Musée du Louvre

The Musée du Louvre in Paris is a national art museum set in a former royal palace on the right bank of the Seine. Its collection spans ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greek and Roman sculpture, and European painting up to the mid-19th century. Six works from this catalogue are held there, including Benozzo Gozzoli's The Triumph of Saint Thomas Aquinas (part) from 1471 and Carlo Braccesco's Annunciation Triptych from around 1490 to 1500. Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, painted between 1503 and 1506, is also held there.
