- Curious art browsers and virtual museum wanderers
- Worth noticing
- Its rooms rehang themselves by artist, movement, subject, or century, using public-domain and CC0 material.
Field notes
The interface treats the museum as a navigable canvas rather than a flat catalogue: visitors move through rooms, inspect the work ahead, and can switch the surrounding collection by artist, movement, subject, or century. Painting images come from Wikimedia Commons, while the site adds resized, shaded 3D scans of sculptures and identifies their scanner, licence, and source in the details. Catalogue data is attributed to Wikidata, with Poly Haven supplying CC0 surfaces.
