While travelling abroad is quite tricky these days, that doesn't mean you have to miss out on beautiful sites. Renowned French museum, the Louvre, has launched a free online platform that features all of its artworks. You can view over 480,000 pieces from its eight departments, including Islamic art, Egyptian antiquities and paintings, and Renaissance sculptures.
"Today, the Louvre is dusting off its treasures, even the least-known," Jean-Luc Martinez, the president and director of the Louvre, said in a statement. "For the first time, anyone can access the entire collection of works from a computer or smartphone for free, whether they are on display in the museum, on loan, even long-term, or in storage."
You can search through the collection using simple or advanced searches or find entries by the curatorial department or themed albums. There's even an interactive map you explore that shows the art room by room. The Louvre plans to update the site regularly as its collection slowly expands.
