In 2019, the Louvre received 9.6 million visitors, making it the most visited museum in the world.In the end, it was just too kinky for the Louvre. The world's most visited museum shied away from displaying a sculpture that some have labelled as too sexually explicit, but the nearby Pompidou Centre on Tuesday decided the world needed to decide for itself. Standing 12 metres tall, Domestikator, a creation from Dutch artist Joep van Lieshout, was originally expected to stand in the 13th century Tuileries Gardens adjacent to Paris' Louvre museum as part...
