Great app

Great app. Some minor bugs such as the close button hovering over the time on the iPhone

Lazy marketing

Why show an ad for art work that sends you to a link to the generic page of the museum? Seems almost click bait

History at your fingertips !

Due to time constraints and family commitments I haven’t been able to see many of the interesting places or treasures from the bygone era . This site has allowed me to get up close to many of the objects and discover new and interesting things . Many congratulations to the producers and all who contribute .
