碧昂絲說唱作品推高盧浮宮人氣

The Louvre museum in Paris set a new visitor record of 10.2 million in 2018. It marked a 25% rise in visitors over the previous year, beating the previous record of 9.7 million visitors in 2012.

2018年，巴黎盧浮宮的參觀人數達到創紀錄的1020萬。這一數字較2017年增長了25%，也打破了該館2012年970萬參觀人次的紀錄。

The Louvre has managed to maintain its high numbers of young visitors -- more than 50% are under 30 -- and was helped by the success of Beyonce and Jay-Z's video for "Apeshit" last summer, which was shot in the museum and featured key works, including the "Mona Lisa" by Leonardo da Vinci, and Jacques-Louis David's masterpiece, "The Consecration of the Emperor Napoleon and the Coronation of Empress Josephine".

盧浮宮仍然吸引了大量的年輕遊客，超過一半的遊客年齡不到30歲，而碧昂絲和Jay-Z去年夏天在盧浮宮拍攝的《Apeshit》MV的成功推高了盧浮宮在年輕遊客中的人氣，在《Apeshit》MV中，達·芬奇的《蒙娜麗莎》以及雅克-路易斯·大衛的《拿破崙一世與約瑟芬皇后加冕禮》等重要作品都有出鏡。

The video, viewed more than 150 million times online, was a great success and led the museum to create a special visitor guide based on the video.

這部MV在網絡上的點擊量超過1.5億，大獲成功，促使盧浮宮根據這部MV創建了一條特殊的導覽線路。

"It's clear that 2018 was a remarkable year for the international reputation of the Louvre," the museum's director, Jean-Luc Martinez, told French radio.

盧浮宮博物館館長讓-盧克·馬丁內斯向法國電臺透露：“很明顯，對於盧浮宮的國際聲譽來說，2018年是不平凡的一年。”

"The Beyonce video, like the opening of the Louvre museum in Abu Dhabi, ensured that the Louvre was talked about across the world, and one of the consequences of that is the spectacular rise in visitor numbers last year."

“碧昂絲的這段視頻，就像阿布扎比盧浮宮博物館的開幕儀式一樣，使得全世界都在談論盧浮宮，帶來的結果之一就是去年遊客數量的驚人增長。”

The museum's success in 2018 was also helped by major exhibitions, in particular a spectacular retrospective of the 19th century artist Eugène Delacroix.

盧浮宮博物館在2018年的成功，也得益於一些大型展覽，特別是19世紀藝術家歐仁·德拉克羅瓦的大型回顧展。
