5. Ron Mael showing a shameless forger. This so-called artist will probably sale his cover version of this erotic masterpiece to innocent children. (Note : this enigmating painting is titled "Gabrielle D'Estrées and One of Her Sisters" - about 1590, artist unknown)

6. In front of "Pierrot" (also known as "Gilles") by Watteau, Russell Mael is discovering from where the brand new Parisian fashion "Watteau's look" comes.

7. If you are looking for an affordable, clean and wide restroom, The Louvre Museum is the place to be. Pretty cool after a long visit... Russell Mael is ready to take a bath.

8. Recent acquisition : Michaelangelo's "David" first version. You can observe obvious similarities between this statue and the definitive masterpiece.

9. To increase their knowledge of arts, visitors can use a headphone which plays Nat King Cole's "Madonna". A nice audiovisual experience to remember...

10. Museum guards are very sympathetic. If you give them a little payola they can organize crazy nights in Paris. But in any case they can sell museum statues to visitors.

11. Visiting The Louvre Museum can be very tiring (more then twelve miles of corridors on four massive floors !). So it's now possible to rent wheelchairs for an affordable rate...
