I also didn't spend much time in this section. It's a popular one, mind you. I suspect it's always popular, but these days you can rent two different audio tours for the Louvre. There's one that's for people who are interested in specific pieces of art, and then there's the "Da Vinci Code" tour.
I've mentioned that the size and labyrinthine nature of the Louvre makes it really easy to get lost, but the Louvre has a very simple organizational principle. That principle is: if you are not in the room with the Mona Lisa, you must be lost. To address that principle, there is (at least) one sign on every unused surface in the Louvre with the image of the Mona Lisa and an arrow, pointing you in the direction of the room with the Mona Lisa. This may sound like exaggeration.
