Hi Everyone, Does anyone know if there is a CD available that Shows painting masterpieces? Something that is a compilation of works of art from all of the great artists of the past. I was asked by a high school art teacher who would like to use multimedia for the class. Thanks. Jeff

I'm also interested in such a disk. Anyone out there know of one? Thanks.

The good news is that there are several just as you describe out there. The bad news is that I can't give you the titles of any of them because my wife and son have been raiding my CD ROM files here and I can't find where they put half of them. You might contact the Bureau of Electronic Publishing in New Jersey and ask for their catalog, which is one of the most complete that I know.

Jack, Thanks for the reply about Art CD's. If you come across the titles, please let me know. Do you have ant info about the bureau of Electronic publishing so I can check with them? Jeff

Jeff: There are bits & pieces on a number of discs, but few that are simply collections. One of the first and best is from the National Portrait Gallery produced by Abt Books Inc. (617/353-5118, 617/661-0511, fax). There are also a couple of gallery tours on CD-I discs, but you have to have a CD-I player to view them. Best – Rich Bowers
