Hear Art

Every masterpiece has a story. Hear Art tells it. Pick a painting and press "Watch the story": a short cinematic film opens with the world it was painted in, the life of the painter, and the history that followed — then moves in close and shows you exactly where to look, detail by detail, as a narrator reads the canvas aloud. It is the feeling of a great museum guide leaning in to say, "now look here."
