Today's weather: Mildly acidic rain.
When you hear Louvre, you think Mona Lisa, La Jaconde, as she is known here. But to a brutally logical and analytical engineering mind, she is unimpressive.
What made the whole three mile walk worthwhile was the abundance of perverted, and in some cases, outright sick paintings and sculptures. Go Old Masters! Here's my pick, the top ten in descending order.Ten:
A still from the 15th century slasher movie- Mummy's head IV.Nine:
One for the feminists. The world's first six pack abs belonged to a woman.Eight:
Artifact from the collection room of a pre-christian sperm bank.Seven:
Sunny Leone and entourage, back in the day.Six:
The world's first orgy. Men, women, horses. Guy on the bed is probably thinking- "Why the hell didn't I think of this before?".Five:
16th Century X-Rated spoof of 'Three Hundred'- 'Three hundred little Spartans'. Notice Leonidus in the centre grabbing attention with an erotic yogic stance.Four:
One of the heads from 17th Century Futurama- known then as 'Futugabriel', as uttering the name of pagan gods was heresy.Three:
Still from the prequel to "Meet your Meat"- the bovine messiah.Two:
The first advertisement for milk- "Cobra bhi peeta hai".And the winner is:
They pretty much speak for themselves.So the next time you go to the Louvre, forget La Jaconde. And wear loose fitting pants.
