Interpretation onlinehelios example One of the primary products of museum staffs' research efforts is interpretation of the collections. Again, many Web sites are offering online versions of materials they have created to supplement site visits, such as thematic brochures, audio tours, interactive floor plans, etc.The National Gallery of Art has a number of "In-Depth Studies of Artists and Works of Art," including some special features, which are drawn from their on-site Micro Gallery. The Foundation of the Hellenic World has an excellent in-depth site about the Olympics Through Time. The Seattle Art Museum has a selection of "Art Essays," in which named curators--not just an institutional voice--write about a single work of art in some depth but for a general audience.
