Nose to the canvas detail

I was initially sceptical about paying £2.50 for 14 paintings but as soon as I zoomed into the awesome detail of the self portrait by Durer I knew this is worth it. It is possible to see every brushstroke of some of the greatest paintings in art history here and marvel at the genius of them all - this is how art should be available in the digital age instead of the countless badly reproduced e-books out there. Hopefully the Prado museum will keep adding to the works shown here, I know it houses hundreds of masterpieces.
Keep up the good work.

Staggering

I cannot believe the number of times I have downloaded art apps, only to find the paintings are low res poor quality images. This is unbelievable, of the fourteen featured paintings you can zoom in to see the individual brushstrokes, it's like standing in front of the real paintings. With essays, audio and background information including X ray images of some of the paintings it's easily the most impressive app I have ever seen

Marvellous

I echo other comments here. This is great value for money. Great information on the artworks and artists and beautifully designed. The app is worth it for the viewing of the "The Garden of Earthly Delights" triptych alone.

The gigapixel resolution brings the art gallery to your home.

Excellent work all around.
