I particularly enjoyed today's Tour of the Louvre. Le Louvre is a reference for museums around the world, for its preservation of collections of the highest order in painting, artifacts, and Egyptian Art pieces. The Egyptian Collections of Le Louvre is the most valued and most extensive in the world, which , certain parts are loaned to museums all around the world for expositions.
The objective of our particular private visit to this historical museum was to have a private, group viewing of some of the painting masterpieces by French Masters, such as Perigault, and Delacroix. We looked at, with the help of the most knowledgeable expert in the field, a wonderful lady, who went by Anne Robin. Anne explained in details the appearance of and the symbolism behind Africans and Black People in the paintings of these masters.
Through the scholarship of Anne, she explained to us in vivid details the presence of African or Black People in some of the paintings of both Perigault and Delacroix. The issue of slavery, servitude, redemption, and oppression is treated by both of these master
