Featured app: Houghton Revisited
Houghton Revisited was a once in a lifetime installation exhibition of Sir Robert Walpole’s magnificent original art collection. When the exhibition was over it was critical for it to continue indefinitely in a digital form, ensuring that the skillful storytelling of the curation was respected.
Wander from room to room through Houghton Hall and explore the magnificent art collection of Sir Robert Walpole, Great Britain's first Prime Minister.
Wonder at masterpieces by Van Dyck, Poussin, Rubens, Rembrandt, Velazquez, Maratta and Murillo, reassembled in their spectacular original setting for the first time in over 200 years after they were sold to Empress Catherine the Great to adorn the Hermitage in St Petersburg.
“One of the best apps ever produced
I am not kidding when I say this, this is one of the most beautiful apps ever created.
This is the only app that I've come across that makes one feel as if they are virtually there, experiencing a beautiful mansion and works of art.
The closest to traveling without having to actually be there.
Amazing that it's the only app of its kind out there, really"
