for many generations to come. Consider, if you will, the many masterpieces the French have given to the world. The Louvre, the Eiffel tower, even our own Statue of Liberty; all French works of art. Add to this the fabulous cuisine and music given to us by our French counterparts, and its hard not to admire the French culture for the beautiful thing it is.

The Art

Above all else, the French culture is known primarily for their art. The Louvre, France’s most famous museum, houses millions of paintings and sculpture from both French artists, as well as artists from across the globe. The Louvre is shaped like a giant pyramid; an innovative design by a French architect, and just one more reason to love the French culture. It is said that to tour the entire Louvre, and to see each and every work of art housed there, would take several months of all-day visits.

The Food

The tastiest part of French culture is, of course, its food. Said to have almost two hundred and fifty different national cheeses, the French take their menu very seriously. In other countries, French food is considered to be a delicacy, and is enjoyed by both royalty and wealthy homes alike. Those of us who are not of elite upbringing may not enjoy French cuisine in our kitchens daily, but French cheeses, wines, and pastries can still be found in almost every grocery store.

The People

French culture has also given the world many historical heroes. Joan of Arc, Napoleon, Claude Monet, Louis Pasteur, and too many more to count. has provided the world with art, medicine, music, and so much more. Every time you are ill, your cure comes from the genius of a French mind. When you look at beautiful Impressionist art, you are looking at a movement started by a French artist. Heroes, martyrs, saints, poets, musicians, and tyrants; the French culture is rich in history that has affected the entire world.

Whether your interest is in the food, the art, the language, or the history, French culture has something to offer everyone. Visit your local library today to learn more about this marvelous people who have helped shape our world!
