Visitors to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam can now look forward to digital support. A phone app enables them to compile their own individual tour. And the trend for showing works of art online is also growing. The Europeana digital heritage network already archives images of some 30 million items from 2,300 cultural institutions, while Google’s Art Project gives users a virtual tour of over 250 museums across the planet.
