Help - Need to know what entrance to the Louvre leads to the inverted pyramid

I have a great picture of the inverted pyramid in the Louvre, and I know we walked downstairs from the entrance we took and ran right into it. My son is using this picture in an architecural project and it would help to know which entrance this was. Of course, I can't remember. I'm sure it was from the rue de Rivoli side. Can anyone help?

Hi Susan,

Have you gone to www.google.com and entred "Louvre pyramid entrance"?

I think you will find the answer.

Yes, Ira, I tried that, but they all show the entrance by the above-ground pyramid that you see in all the pictures. I'm talking about the inverted pyramid, and I know we walked downstairs to get to where that is. Thanks anyway.

OK, I just tried again with "inverted pyramid" and found it is the entrance for the Carrousel du Louvre. Answered my own question!

Yes, SusanP, if I recall correctly, you enter the Carrousel du Louvre entrance right from the rue de Rivoli.
