Overview

Art lovers, hold on to your berets, your minds are about to be blown! Google has conspired to throw open the doors to some of the world's most spectacular museums, retooling 'street view' to enable viewers to virtually walk such hallowed halls as Versailles, the Uffizi, MoMA, the Met and the Britain's Tate and National Galleries.

The result is nothing short of revolutionary, as The Art Project allows you to zoom in for impeccable detail, create your own artwork collections (just imagine) as well as accessing a wealth of historical information via the Visitor Guide.
