After the War, a new Louvre, transformed by major renovation

work, gradually opened to the public between 1945 and 1947. And

thanks to the skills and tenacity of those responsible for 

safeguarding cultural property, the museum’s major masterpieces 

returned to the palace, virtually unscathed. (Louvre)
