There are also street view tours of various galleries at the Met and the Met Breuer.
Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) - Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night, Paul Cézanne's Still Life with Apples and Henri Rousseau's The Sleeping Gypsy are just some of the 129 modern masterpieces from the Museum of Modern Art that you'll find on Google Arts & Culture, along with online exhibits like one on the work of Dada pioneer Sophie Taeuber-Arp.
Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum - You can descend the ramps of the Guggenheim’s famed Frank Lloyd Wright–designed rotunda, taking in the artwork as you go, thanks to this street-view tour that also jogs through the galleries of the Tannhauser Collection, which contains the museum's most significant offerings of Impressionism and Early Modern Art.
Whitney Museum Of American Art - The Whitney has 60 of its core holdings in 20th-century art online, with pieces by greats such as Edward Hopper, Marsden Hartley and Joseph Stella.

Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam - Over in the Netherlands, the Rijksmuseum is an oasis of classical Dutch art, Asian artefacts and 17th-century silver and porcelain.
