I TOURED THE MUSÉE DU LOUVRE THIS MORNING; you can too. The Louvre has introduced a lovely and innovatively designed visite virtuelle portion of its website, with QuickTime movies allowing you to stroll through each of the principal rooms and collections from anywhere in the world. It makes a very pleasant and humane study break.

Additionally, any of you feeling inclined this morning to enter the great controversy between the ancients and moderns can see how pitiably the Bayeux Tapestry comes up compared with, say, the salle des antiquités grecques et romaines - both now conveniently accessible online.
