ArtServe at the Australian National University: http://rubens.anu.edu.au Welcome to ArtServe:Art & Architecture mainly from the Mediterranean Basin, Japan, India & Cambodia We had heard that the air of Baghdad engenders gladness in the heart and disposes the spirit to joy and conviviality so that you will scarce find one who is not cheerful and gay, even though he be a stranger and far from his home(Ibn Jubayr, Travels, for May/June 1184)Zooming Images with the Panorado Applet: Because images are getting larger (my latest are 10.2mp, taken with the Sony R1), I believe that Panorado software, especially its Java applet, could be of great interest in allowing users of this website an easier examination of image details. Large images on this site will be progressively converted to use this zoomable viewer, which requires Java v.1.4 or newer. A demonstration of this versatile applet, showing two images on the same HTML page, uses the Marcus Aurelius in the Musei Capitolini, and a single full-size image of the superb Commodus as Hercules in the same museum.
