France - Paris - Louvre - Wedding Photos 02_DSC7326

No, not Prince Harry and Meghan Markle........ I was tempted to head to my hometown of Windsor today to see if I could get a shot of the royal couple but I suspect it's going to be rather busy...

Some may consider this photo a bit voyeuristic but a) they did choose to have their Wedding photos taken in the Louvre courtyard, b) I'm not convinced it wasn't actually a model shoot and c) this was taken not that far from where Robert Doisneau took his famous shot 'The kiss by the Hotel de Ville' (itself he admitted later was a set up shot of two actors he knew)........

From Wikipedia : "By 1874, the Louvre Palace had achieved its present form of an almost rectangular structure with the Sully Wing to the east containing the Cour Carrée (Square Court) and the oldest parts of the Louvre; and two wings which wrap the Cour Napoléon, the Richelieu Wing to the north and the Denon Wing, which borders the Seine to the south.

In 1983, French President François Mitterrand proposed, as one of his Grands Projets, the Grand Louvre plan to renovate the building and relocate the Finance Ministry, allowing displays throughout the building. Architect I. M. Pei was awarded the project and proposed a glass pyramid to stand over a new entrance in the main court, the Cour Napoléon. The pyramid and its underground lobby were inaugurated on 15 October 1988 and the Louvre Pyramid was completed in 1989. The second phase of the Grand Louvre plan, La Pyramide Inversée (The Inverted Pyramid), was completed in 1993. As of 2002, attendance had doubled since completion."
