France's Louvre museum 'running out of steam', new director says

The world's largest museum is having a hard time securing investments to upgrade its decaying infrastructure, the Louvre's new director Christophe Leribault told a Senate committee Wednesday. The museum has been hit by a series of public scandals including a water leak, a large-scale ticket fraud operation and the daylight theft of nearly $100 million worth of imperial jewellery.
