MFA Boston Interactive Tours

The Boston Museum of Fine Arts has a neat feature on its website: interactive tours of its collection.

Particularly neato is a feature that allows you to zoom in to see objects very closely - probably more closely than you'd be allowed to get to them in the museum. And the resolution is amazing. The descriptions of the pieces are also nice a thorough, so you can put them in the context of whatever chapter you're reading in Art History.
