portrait. With more than 35,000 works on display, the museum is a vast universe of masterpieces spanning ancient civilizations, classical antiquity, the Renaissance, and the modern age.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For refined travelers, exploring the Louvre beyond the crowds surrounding the Mona Lisa offers a deeper, richer, and more serene artistic experience. Some of the museum\u2019s most breathtaking works are hidden in its quieter wings, where beauty can be admired without rush.<\/span><\/p><h2><b>What masterpiece greets visitors at the top of the Daru staircase?<\/b><\/h2><h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The Winged Victory of Samothrace<\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This ancient Greek sculpture is one of the most dramatic artworks in the Louvre.
