This project offers mostly the feeling of the museums involved but some works of art are detailed or very detailed and some are ancient artifacts like this temple http://www.googleartproject.com/museums/met/the-temple-of-dendur

Thanks, I had tried this but only now am getting the knack of navigation. It's great since some of these museums have been hard to fit into my schedule. I hope they can cover some Roman archeology sites!

 

I only wish the temple you highlight was more pannable like the rest of that museum. I could re-envision the encounter I had with Andy Warhol and his ridiculous platinum wig when it was empty like that. He first locked eyes to ensure I would clear out so his photographer could snap him there. Then he saw I recognized him, and weirdly seemed to enjoy that more than I did.
