Google Shows Hi-Res Prado Paintings

Google has teamed up with Spain’s Prado museum to bring super hi-res paintings to Google Earth, and Google Maps [note: page auto-plays sound]. AP writes that the initiative involves “14 of the Prado’s choicest paintings,” including Diego Velazquez’s “Las Meninas,” Francisco de Goya’s “Third of May” and Peter Paul Rubens’ “The Three Graces.”
