Glass Barrier of the Louvre Gallery

A reinforced steel-and-plate-glass box constructed to physically shield the Mona Lisa from direct assault, its thick transparent panels framed in cold steel. The Count’s team bypasses it in seconds using a sonic knife, the glass yielding with a high-frequency vibration rather than shattering. Its purpose is purely to obstruct forcible entry, leaving the painting otherwise unguarded behind ineradicable layers of defense.

Count rehearses Mona Lisa theft

The simulated glass barrier is affixed with removable handles by the henchmen before being sliced open by the sonic knife, its plates extracted cleanly to reveal red laser beams beyond, momentarily exposing the hidden painting to attack in the simulation.

Before: Solid and unbroken, forming a continuous protective shell around the simulated Mona Lisa.

After: Removed in panels, leaving only the frame behind, then restored upon simulation’s end as the projection resets.
