Were you surprised at how SMALL it was? I sure was.

The sealed case is probably why it's deteriorating!

Maybe but I can't help thinking perhaps the heat wave France experienced where thousands of elderly people died may have helped in the warping of the wood the Mona Lisa was painted on. The Louvre is surely climate controlled no? I visited in 1995 but it wasn't hot when I went.

I'd seen it once before when it was in NYC on tour when I was a child. I recall THEN being surprised at how small it was.
