There’s a small exhibition in the Louvre that takes you down to the foundations of the old medieval castle that were discovered beneath the museum. It includes a couple of display cases showing items from those excavations, including these medieval dominoes and dice. Photographing through glass is always hard, but in this case I’m extremely pleased at how the small details of wear and staining came through.
