CHALLENGE

A day at the museum seldom turns out as the relaxed and exciting experience one might dream of, especially when visiting a high-profile museum where all the most famous and beautiful artworks are on display. In the Louvre, one has about 30 seconds to snap a quick picture of the Mona Lisa before the next group of onlookers is ushered in. And in the end, most people go out about as knowledgeable as they have entered.

The devil is in the detail

Small dots mark the paintings' most exciting visual attributes. The user has to find these dots with their tablet camera. When the user approaches one, it unlocks a HI-Res view of that part of the painting, and a narrator informs about the exciting details and stories behind the artist's finest brushstrokes.

See the unseen

The X-Ray and Structure features convey physical information about the artwork you would never come close to seeing in a museum. The user can explore different layers of paint, the canvas's construction, the painting's back, and much more.
