Arno is a French art historian who specializes in European painting and history. After studying art history and museology and working in museums, he eventually decided to turn his attention to the public and became a guide. Although painting remains the focus of his speciality, seven years of study and two years of working at the Louvre have given him a deep knowledge of the museum and its collections. He is particularly fond of Middle Eastern, Roman and Greek antiquities, European sculptures and paintings, and Islamic art.
