the hanging upside down glass pyramid geometrically aligned w/ smaller opposite made of marble within first level of Louvre museum in Paris. mere work of art or metaphoric representation of chalice and blade (male & female). and no, I do not believe Mary Magdalene's sarcophogus lies "beneath the Rose"....

G'day Atthepub,
Thank you for your question.
There were plans to build a pyramid for the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. IM Pei was aware of this when he designed it. Contrary to popular myth and the Da Vinci Code there are not 666 panes but 673. Nor did Francois Mitterand specify how many panes of glass there should be.
I have attached sources for your reference.
Seasons greetings

You mean the glass pyramid outside the Louvre?
