No flash photography is allowed according to www.louvre.fr (the official site). |

Yet there are dozens of people snapping pictures of the Mona Lisa! None of them are supposed to be using flash. I found that pretty annoying. I've read the security guards are just overwhelmed.
I did once inadvertently use flash at the Musee d'Orsay, when I wasn't even near any paintings, and a female security guard said, quick as a wink, "Madame! No flash!" I felt terrible, because I had read the rules before, and hadn't meant to violate them.

Yep, without a flash is fine. You wouldn't want to use a flash anyway as some of the pieces, like the Mona Lisa are in glass cases.
