Le Louvre

I'm aware that le Louvre is glass pyramid which is the entrance to a well known art gallery in France. Im curious if the pyramid's architecture was influenced by the egyptians at all. The shape itself was a symbol of power and wealth for the egyptains, but is their a reason for why a French architect chose to construct a pyramid in France?
