I was able to see her several times already and everytime I‘m amazed once again. I‘ve been to many European cities and saw a lot of famous sculptures and statues but I think la Victoire de Samothrace will always be my favourite. Merci beaucoup au personnel du Louvre
As a Greek I want to thank you France for take caring this magnificent piece of art and place it in such a great spot inside the Louvre. I don't want the statue to return to Greece for various reasons which I won't mention here. It represent Hellenic civilation for millions of people around the world and you deserved to have it in your museum.
I am sure one day it will return, and I support that. But not today or anytime soon. Even the Elgin marbles should return at some date in the future where all others are returned home to their countries as well--say, in 2320 ;-)
@@TWOCOWS1why ? it was the French who found it, repaired it (it was literally in 110 pieces), cleaned it, maintained it for 161 years and showcased it by exhibiting it in one of the most beautiful castle in the world. It now has the legitimacy to belong to France
@@CatherineVanallen I fully agree. That is why I wrote in AD 2320!! The Turks were burning all the marble statues and columns to make white lime and plaster it on their walls. There would have been nothing left. Entire giganti temples were burned for their marble into lime. This would have been burned as well, as all the temples over and around it were burned for lime plaster by the locals
Magnífico! Mesmo sem entender o francês, vale a pena observar essa linda obra do período helenístico! Um dia vou ao Louvre e verei de perto... Obrigado pelo vídeo!
Up until I laid my eyes on her - I was fatigued, jostled by the crowds & was completely disoriented trying to figure out how to make the 3D audio-visual guide work. In my haste to get to the over-hyphed Mona Lisa - can you believe that I failed to notice! I will never forget the moment I looked up (from the side top of staircase) & beheld her form in motion....my head cleared instantly & my jaw dropped!! In a way - I was so glad I had never heard of her existence (except for branded Nike shoes & Rolls Royce emblem) - bcos it is one of those moments I will never forget...!! This was back in Oct 2018 - my first visit ever to Louvre & hopefully past Covid19 - there will be many more :) :)
Pour moi aussi la Victoire que je voulais voir au LOUVRE m'a tellement impressionnée que je suis restée pétrifiée devant une telle beauté et les larmes me sont venues aux yeux.
PIERRE CAZETTE Yes, sure, educate yourself. Typical answer from someone with the attidute of a French colonialist. I am glad that the majority of people from France do not share the same opinions.I suppose you believe the same for the Parthenon Marbles in the British Museum.
Greece is a french colony? since when? Who must be educated? We didn't stole the statue. Greeks didn't give a shit about his heritage until french or british saved it and placed it in museums. Samothrace was lost for centuries before a frenchman saved her. Greeks are incapable to build a strong country and save their art, who's to blame? French? British? Or Greeks? Nobody in France wants to see samothrace leave the louvre, that's only in your dream. There are many french cloisters in the MET in NY because of our negligence and we're not whyning...it's our fault. Americans saved those french masterpieces and we don't blame them.
PIERRE CAZETTE The majority of Greece was under the turkish occupation, so when this piece of art was found, the Frenches asked permission from the Sultan to take it.Educate yourself a bit, even from wikipedia!When i use the term "French colonist", i don't mean it literally, but metaphorically, for the person who thinks that everything belongs to him
i know for ottoman empire and i know that french and british saved lots art from greece because greeks were not enough strong to make it. Everything doesn't belong to france but samothrace does.

Superbe
Ma première visite au Louvre je devais avoir 8 ans maxi. Mon plus beau et plus impressionnant souvenir

Magnificent!
This magnificent piece of art belongs to Greece, it is a pity that the Museum doesn't have the intention to return it to its country...
your comment is a pity
she was in pieces in greece
french saved her, french keep her, that's more than fair

So the Louvre do not have the money to pay someone to add some captions?... and, not only in French, but other languages as well... :(
not all, but some people is interested in more than images.
