My wife dragged me there a few years ago and in one of the rooms there were small paintings from the 13th century.I couldn't help myself and just has to touch a few of them,
thinking that these things have survived for 800 years.It's a mind boggler.There was a larger painting there,in black and white,that was a true 3 D effect.It was pots and pans in a kitchen.
And the topper was seeing the Mona Lisa.Needless to say I couldn't get close enough to touch it.
39 more to go.
