Abstract
This paper discusses space and visual sign in case of museum exhibition. The topic is drawn from the case of a famous painting, the Mona Lisa, which is collected and long-timely exhibited in the Louvre. The spatial pattern in the Louvre can be summarized as three-dimensional multi-layer spatial pattern. Exhibits are put orderly according to their ages and types. To help people find the Mona Lisa easily, a set of visual signs are well-marked from the entrance hall to the location of the Mona Lisa. The case of space and visual sign in the Louvre arouses our deeply thought. We should adjust measures to local conditions and take more care of evidences’ needs.
