French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that the Mona Lisa will get its own dedicated room inside the Louvre museum, which he said will be renovated and expanded in a major overhaul.

A multi-year overhaul will see a new entrance built as well as a separate underground gallery for Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece in what Mr Macron called a "new renaissance".

The world's most visited museum is also overcrowded, antiquated and desperate for renovations that will start next year and include separate space and tickets for Mona Lisa.

Now she’s really got something to smile about. Mona Lisa is moving out of shared digs and into her own “special space” at the Louvre, French President Emmanuel Macron announced on Tuesday — with visiting Americans expected to help pay for the pricey upgrade.
