This is an amazing app and a must for art lovers, whether they visit the venerable Louvre or not. The graphis are beautiful and the content extremely informative. A pleasure to browse through, and it certainly beats mindless games which are not free!

Really a work in progress. Videos in French which I do not speak. Could use more paintings. Not really a app I would keep but is worth downloading to look over.
Nice art but lacking many things

I was very excited to see this app on the store and you can't complain about the price- it's free. But every video defaults to French (when you can program it to look up a person's default language) and the clips are so short as to be almost
worthless. Which illustrates what's wrong with this app- too little of everything. Too few pix and in low resolution, etc. It's got a lot of potential, but unfortunately left me flat.

Is a great app, rich with content. Has video tours along with basic info on each art piece.
Marketing ploy?

I'm giving this 4 stars because I'm an art student and love art, but docking a star because this is just a marketing ploy.
Apple opened their store at the Louvre today, and then this app comes out. It's also the first Apple store in France and a flagship store as well. Coincidence? I think not.
Superficial
You expect more from a top notch museum. Minimal information and you cannot zoom in to see the details of the art. If you are there you step back to see the overview and composition but then you want to walk close and see the painters brushstrokes and techniques or the details in the sculpture.
I understand it is free but why not make it usefull. If this a children's version then say so.
Good review of the Louvre

This is a good app if you want to see a very small portion of this museum. There is a great deal more to see in person, which I highly recommend. My only complaints are that it needs more content, and the videos need to be in English like the writting is.
Almost as good as being there!
This is a decent app that gives not only pics of w/details & u can zoom, but u can see video tour w/ audio in English, Louvre info + directions,

Musée du Louvre in iPhone : magnifique !
Sparse content
Not bad, but is mainly an advertisement for the museum.
There are only about 20 or so pieces in the artworks section. And the video narration is in French.
At least it's free.
Beautiful!
