‘Masterpieces at MUŻA’ may now be experienced through Virtual Reality

The ‘Masterpieces at MUŻA’ exhibition may now be experienced through Virtual Reality (VR) on the website muza.mt, ensuring an intimate and enhanced encounter with the 13 Old Master paintings currently on display at MUŻA, the National Community Art Museum in Valletta.

The website provides access to a virtual tour of the exhibition that may be viewed on a mobile phone, tablet or laptop here: https://muza.mt/360-tour/ However, owners of a VR headset can enjoy the tour even more thanks to this gadget of modern technology.

The virtual tour, produced entirely by Heritage Malta’s Digitisation Unit, enables the 13 masterpieces to be enjoyed free of charge in the comfort of one’s home or office. The VR experience, in particular, is especially alluring to the younger generation, introducing them to Renaissance art in an entertaining way.

‘Masterpieces at MUŻA’ runs until the end of October, when its 13 paintings will be integrated in the MUŻA display for five years and possibly for another five after that. The paintings have been loaned to MUŻA on a long-term basis and range from the late 15th to the mid-18th century.
