You might not be able to make it to the Louvre right now, but Samsung is bringing some of its beloved artwork to you. The company partnered with the Louvre gallery to bring 40 works, including the Mona Lisa and The Wedding at Cana, to its Art Store catalogue. This collection also includes photos of the Louvre's galleries, museum grounds, and architecture. You can expect more artwork from the museum over the coming year.
