When German soldiers finally reached the Louvre, they found the most impressive collection of empty frames ever assembled. Even the Venus de Milo on display was a plaster copy.

This is the evacuation of the Louvre's collection in 1939, organized by Jacques Jaujard, director of France's national museums, who saw the war coming before most people did. On August 25, 1939, he closed the Louvre for three days, officially for repairs. For three days and nights, staff, art students, and workers borrowed from a nearby department store packed paintings, statues, and treasures into wooden crates, marked by color according to importance: yellow for valuable, green for major works, red for world treasures. The Mona Lisa's crate got three red circles.

On August 28, a convoy of more than 200 trucks carrying close to 1,900 crates left Paris for the Château de Chambord in the Loire Valley. Some pieces were too large to crate at all. The Raft of the Medusa had to be covered with a blanket and hauled on an open truck, and when it brushed a power line passing through Versailles en route, it knocked out electricity across the entire town.

That was just the beginning of the journey. As German forces advanced, the most valuable works kept moving to stay ahead of them. The Mona Lisa alone was relocated five separate times, from Chambord to Louvigny, then an abbey, then a museum in Montauban, then a château in the Lot, always one step ahead of the front line.

Before Allied forces moved to retake France, Jaujard had smuggled the hiding locations to them, confirmed through a coded message read aloud on BBC radio: "La Joconde a le sourire," the Mona Lisa is smiling. Curators painted enormous "Musée du Louvre" signs onto the grounds of the châteaux so pilots overhead would know not to bomb them.

In total, roughly 4,000 works from the Louvre, plus pieces from 200 other French museums, spent the war scattered across more than 70 hiding places. Every single one eventually made it home.

48hrs ago, I would've been proud while telling people, that I'm from Kolkata -
"a place of heritage";"the city of Joy"
But now if someone asks me where I'm from, I'll have this sunken, ashamed, guilty feeling while giving my answer. This was not expected of us not from Kolkata😞

Finally, the two year journey is ending, although it feels a bit abrupt and in the end I didn't get to go explore all my ideas and goals,sadly. But this end is the actual beginning & I have got a lot more to offer and lot more to do, than I've ever done.
