Art History
This web site provides a map of Rome as an interface to a multimedia database. Users can explore the city by zooming in on particular regions of the map, or can use a variety of search tools to access information.
The goal of the Piero Project is to provide on-line resources to help students solve art historical problems in new ways. The project represents a series of historical and intellectual relationships in such a way that students can discover them for themselves in the context of classroom dialogue. In addition to a database structured around four main categories in art history: artifacts, people, content, and context, the project includes several 3-D models of images of paintings in their proper architectural context.
