WANDEROUS 🇫🇷 The Louvre Effect: When Museums Feel Like a Giant Where’s Waldo Book

from WANDEROUS · host Andrew Crusoe

In which I find the odd parallels between the Louvre Museum, the British Museum, and “Where’s Waldo” books by Martin Handford. Overall. a rather silly overview of a very remarkable place.Show NotesWhat do the Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace have in common? Listen and find out the surprising connection!The Lapith & Centaur frieze sculpture that I saw in the British Museum is at this page (for Patreon Supporters) — Lapith people show up everywhere!My silly Mona Lisa TikTok video that got 100+ hearts & shows the crazy crowd.Here’s the same video on YouTube shorts if you’re in a country with censorship.There are a lot more videos of the Louvre on my YouTube and TikTok pages.Homework: Look up Jacques-Louis David and see if you can find his person guide along with a photo of the painting, and tell me you aren’t reminded of Where’s Waldo (Or Where’s Wally for our European listeners)Also: Feel free to compare Giotto di Bondone’s haunting art with your nightmares. There is a connection.Yes, I recorded a shameless promo video in the Louvre. Hopefully I won’t go to jail.And here’s a bit of a farewell video to France.TRAVEL TIP: Try out BlaBlaCar on your next international trip. It works quite well in Europe and India, too, apparently.You can follow my Patreon for free to submit questions for future episodes & get member-only exclusive episodes: https://patreon.com/hellocrusoeYou can also subscribe to this show on Spotify, Apple, Amazon and more.
