Museums
marco
Marco is an abbreviation for Museo De Arte Contemporaneo De Monterrey, a museum located in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
I chose this museum because since I am of Mexican descent I haven't traveled to Monterrey since I was 15 years old.
I'm 27 years old now. This museum actually has a Pixar exhibit, Pixar is the Animation Studio that has created many
movies. This museum also caught my attention because it looks very elegant.
Vatican City
I chose this site because it gives you access to online tours of different areas of the museum and also because this
museum is located in Rome. The online tours are such a nice feature because it gives you many views of a specific part
of the museum. I chose to look at the part of the museum that had the sistine chapel. Some of the views are limited
but it is very nice.
Mexic-artemuseum
The Mexic-Arte Museum is located in Austin, Texas. I chose this museum because it's specifically focuses on Latino
art and culture. In the photos section of this website they have many event photos for your convenience. Some
of the pictures are very interesting.

Artists
Michelangelo
This site has Michelangelo Buonarroti's sculptures, drawings, paintings, architectural works and Frescoes in the Sistine
Chapel. The sistine Chapel pictures that are available can be zoomed in so you can see the details nicely. I also
like that Michelangelo was an Italian painter, sculptor and architect. The drawings that are available are also interesting.
Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso lived from 1881 - 1973, which he lived about 92 years old. This site takes you through the different
periods of his life and what he created during those periods.
Leonardo
Leonardo Da Vinci was a painter, sculptor, musician, engineer, inventor, scientist, and an architect. I was also
attracted to his details in the paintings and drawings he made. His self-portrait was very interesting because in my
opinion I would never think of drawing myself. I also read that he would write his notes were written backwards
in his notebook so that only someone intelligent enough to realize it could read it.
