The on the wall opposite "The Mona Lisa" - something no one sees


 
I think I understand the French description of the Italian painting, but I think the most important thing is that it is wonderful and no one sees it. They are pushing a shoving to get a photo of the Mona Lisa. The Mona Lisa is under bullet-proof glass and the light reflects off of it so that it is difficult to see. I am not saying that it is not a masterpiece, but there are many more all round it in the Louvre.
