As the Louvre stands beneath its timeless grandeur, the institution finds itself at a fragile crossroads. In a candid interview with Oliver Farry, French Art Historian and Editor-in-Chief of La Tribune de l’Art, Didier Rykner sounds the alarm, not just on mismanagement, but on a deeper malaise: a loss of direction and purpose cloaked in ambition.

Are we witnessing France’s most iconic cultural emblem increasingly adrift from its true “raison d’être”, weighed down by neglect and a vision of grandeur increasingly detached from reality?
