Virtual Venice trip and currently not on display paintings

[vivdunstan]

Planning a virtual visit to Venice this spring/summer - goodness only knows when I might get there again in person, with my progressive neurological disease. Browsing Gallerie Accademia website, agog how many of my favourite paintings aren't on display at mo.

This includes my favourite Gentile Bellini huge paintings as well as the Ursula cycle by Vittore Carpaccio. So it's probably as well I'm planning this tour - including favourite and new to me artworks - virtually rather than in person now! I can sit in person for ages in front of these ones.

To be fair the paintings are not available to view because of a combination of restoration work and restructuring of the gallery. So it is for good reasons. But I'm really relieved I'm not hoping to see them in person there at the moment. Because I'd be incredibly disappointed to miss these paintings.

How does a virtual tour work? Do you get to see images that are full screen?

Or a virtual environment?
