Free Virtual Museums to Visit and Train your Artistic Eye

January 11, 2021 by Sangalang Kristine

Free virtual museum tours are the only things we have left in our pockets for ‘traveling’ and artistic inspiration, in this pandemic. Traveling for leisure (or inspiration) is possible, but the potential risks are high. You might get sick along the way or might get another person sick. You might not know the travel restrictions other states or countries have at the moment. Traveling is such a hassle nowadays. Now that many countries are on their second lockdown, the thought of staying home becomes exhausting. The exhaustion can turn into burnout, and the burnout may eventually lead to an artistic rut.

The year 2020 may have ended just a while ago, but its after-effects still linger on. Here are some of the world-class museums you could visit without leaving the comforts of your home. It might not be as great as the real thing, but it is better than nothing.

Do you know what the bright side of virtual tours is? You could get up close and personal with the art. If tourists go to the museum itself, there will be lines and other tourists obstructing your view. Going to a virtual museum would feel like a private walkthrough of the world’s most amazing art.
