Details?

Have you ever seen the "wrinkles" around Venus' eyes? or the beautiful fabric of Eleonora's dress?

Some of the Uffizi paintings have been selected and digitized for Google to enable viewers to observe each single detail, even canvas threads. The Uffizi Gallery is at the moment the only Italian museum participating in the Google Art Project (www.googleartproject.com).


The real ones are better, but it is worth having a look.....
