A music video by Beyonce and Jay-Z set in the Louvre helped boost visitor numbers to a record high 10.2 million last year.
The Louvre’s previous record was 9.7 million visitors, in 2012, when it opened its Islamic Art section and held exhibitions on Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael.
Reporters reports, the Louvre is pleased with the response to the video for their song “APES**T,” which has nearly 150 million views on Youtube.
