Mona Lisa Stolen from the Louvre






On this day, in 1911, the Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre Museum In Paris.  To commemorate this historical event, the museum created this short animated video on how the painting was stolen and subsequently found. Below is a link to the video. If the video is in it's native tongue of French (and you don't understand like me), in the upper right hand corner of the page, you can change the language.
