Atlas, the database of the collection of the Louvre is now in English as well as French.  The collection of 35,000 works of art may be searched by keyword, artist, title, technique, medium, department and even room.  For each work there is a high-resolution image, a description and the location of the work in the Louvre.  A visitor to the site may create their own album which when printed is grouped by location.  This is a great database for the art student or prospective visitor to the Louvre
