Ten of the world’s best online museums: given museums can only physically display a fraction of their actual collections, it is well worth checking out their websites, which often feature high definition scans of many of their unseen artifacts.
Museums are rarely able to exhibit more than a fraction of the material they own, and even then the best stuff is too often sealed off behind glass or mobbed by school parties. There are no such problems on museum websites, where space is unlimited and objects, scanned in high definition, can be browsed in close-up.
