Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge

The homepage for Cambridge University's museum looks a touch bland. However, explore a bit and you will find lots of information of interest. The collections and special exhibitions are described in adequate detail with some images, while the new online exhibitions are enthrawling and detailed with a plethora of images and information. The site also plays host to an online shop and a good amount of access information for visitors.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Virtual Turner
Although Ruskin chose to give the majority of his extensive collection of Turners to his alma mater Oxford, he left an important collection of 25 Turner landscapes to Cambridge. This exhibition works well as an introduction to Ruskin and Turner, and each landscape is described and analysed. The quality of the collection fully deserves this caring approach.
