"The Metropolitan Museum of Art Puts 490,000 High-Res Images Online & Makes Them Free to Use"
The number of art pieces alone is staggering to contemplate. Having them freely available to browse is incredible, and to then put a #HiRes #scan for all of them into the #PublicDomain is astonishing.
A lifetime of #museum visits to view remarkable #art without a lifetime of travel. No, you don't get exactly the same experience, but holy brushstrokes, Batman...!!!
