The Art Institute of Chicago has made thousands of artworks available to view on their website including many famous impressionist paintings. Their holdings of late 19th-century French art are among the largest and finest in the world. You can easily spend several hours immersed in the museum’s wide-ranging collection.
Another interesting area to explore is their current exhibition, El Greco: Ambition and Defiance. The museum also has extensive video and audio content to compliment their art exhibits.
A section of the website focuses on activities that you can do at home with kids including art-making, creative writing and coloring. A virtual visit to the museum is a great way to keep your family busy for an afternoon.
