Art Project by Google

Google and 17 of the world’s greatest art museums have created a way to view art with no queues, no charges for entry tickets, no noisy and clumsy crowds. A free art world just for you, where you can roam 385 art museum halls and turn around 360 degrees to get a full perspective of the rooms (just like in Google Street View) while simply lying on your favorite sofa. You can zoom in to view the details of an artwork you are interested in, even if what you want to see is the detail of the painted ceiling of the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles, France. Moreover, you can become an art collector yourself, without any financial limitations on your collection. You can gather your own virtual art collection and invite your friends to see it, even extending your choices to Van Gogh, Pollok and Botticelli.
