In 2018, the Carters shook things up at the venerable Louvre palace! Follow this trail to see the highlights the superstar couple picked out for their ‘APES**T’ music video.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z chose the Louvre as their shooting location. This trail shows you the paintings, sculptures and settings that inspired them for this song from their first album as a duo: an Egyptian sphinx, Greek gods and goddesses, a famous Italian of the Renaissance, an emperor in all his glory, tragic or romantic heroes and heroines – and the iconic Winged Victory of Samothrace, who appears in the video poised on the prow of her marble ship while a sea of dancers ripple in waves down the staircase at her feet.
