Laurence des Cars, the director of the Louvre in Paris, has decided to limit the number of daily visitors to the museum to two-thirds of its previous cap, The Art Newspaper reports. While the Louvre used to allow up to 45,000 visitors daily, that number will now be 30,000. In a statement, des Cars said the decision had been made “so the visit would be a pleasurable experience, especially for first-timers to the museum who make up 60% of entries.”
