Insecula. As the Wiki says:
Insecula: L'encyclopédie des arts et de l'architecture is a French language art website containing images and descriptions of thousands of works of art from major museums and collections in France and elsewhere, including the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, the Palace of Versailles, the Centre Pompidou, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the MOMA.But it's not just museums and art. It's got Mayan ruins, Manhattan and Brooklyn, and of course lots of Paris streets. I can't believe plep hasn't posted this already...
This is great. I'm stuck in my office today and being able to escape to the streets or paris - if even for just a few minutes - has made my day.

Excellent link. And that's all I have to say about that.

Wow. French Encyclopedias are simply in a different league. This is beautiful.
