The world-renowned Louvre Museum in Paris has taken a significant step for hearing-impaired art enthusiasts by launching comprehensive virtual tours with sign language interpretation. Masterpieces among the museum's iconic works, including the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and the Winged Victory of Samothrace, are now presented in both French Sign Language (LSF) and International Sign Language.

Museum Director Laurence des Cars stated, "Making art accessible to everyone is our top priority. Through this new digital project, we aim to reach hearing-impaired art lovers around the world and make the Louvre's unique collection accessible to them as well."

The virtual tours, accessible through the museum's website and mobile application, were prepared by specially trained sign language interpreters. The videos created for each work detail the historical significance, artistic value, and creation processes of the pieces.

The project also offers interactive virtual gallery tours and a 360-degree viewing experience enhanced with special effects. This innovative application is expected to set an example for other major museums.
