Musée du Louvre | The Majid Boustany Fund

The Majid Boustany Fund, created in 2020 within the Musée du Louvre Endowment Fund, is established in perpetuity to be used for the conservation and enhancement of the museum’s collections.

The income from the fund is intended to help restore the masterpieces that Francis Bacon admired during his frequent visits to the Louvre, some of which were sources of inspiration for his paintings. Bacon and The Louvre >
