App Store launches a Musée de Lourve app

Apple’s App Store has released a Musée de Lourve app to coincide with the opening of the first Apple retail store in Paris.

Key features of the Lourve App include:

• Artworks – where users can discover fifty major works from the museum with narrative, detailed views and a description of the art and its location within the museum.
• The Palace – which offers ten views from outside and inside the museum, with each image offering detailed information on the corresponding hall as well as explanatory content.
• Tour – which allows users to browse through the museum via seven videos in full screen.
• Bookmarks – where users can bookmark their favourite selection of works and halls.
• Visitor information – offering information on everything visitors to the museum will need: access, timetables, tariffs, services, map and contacts.

Coming to your iPhone free of cost, it’s a fair bit cheaper than a knock-off canvas or a trip on the Eurostar.
