PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron announced Tuesday that the 'Mona Lisa' will get its own dedicated room inside the Louvre museum under a major renovation and expansion of the Paris landmark that will take up to a decade.
The renovation project, branded 'Louvre New Renaissance,' will include a wide new entrance near the Seine River, to be opened by 2031, Macron said in a speech from the room where Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece is displayed.
