The Louvre is to honour its new friends Beyonce & Jay-Z with a tour designed to celebrate their creative union!

The couple rented the museum to shoot scenes for their ‘ApeSh**’ visual and sparked interest in it amongst their respective fan bases who will now be able to celebrate their art via a tour based on their experience in the venue.

“Portrait of a Negress” was painted in 1800, six years after revolutionary France had abolished slavery in its Caribbean colonies only for Napoleon to reinstate it two years later.

But perhaps the most striking image is of Beyonce at the centre of a line of black dancers in front of David’s “The Coronation of Napoleon I and the Crowning of the Empress Josephine” singing, “I can’t believe we made it..”
