Google Art Project: Bringing the art of the world to you

If you have even the slightest interest in art this should be something you really appreciate. Google has partnered with galleries around the world to share some the finest creations of humanity with all of us.



I stumbled upon this after coming across this behind the scenes video:



I'm not ashamed to admit that being able to see the amazing details in the high resolution image of van Gogh's The Starry Night had me in tears. This is not something I ever thought I'd get a chance to see, so I was totally unprepared for the effect of seeing such a breathtaking piece of work so closely.

To explore it for yourself head on over to google art project
