Whistler’s Peacock Room

Description

The site functions both as a digital archive and as an immersive virtual environment in which users can explore the Peacock Room, learn about the objects it has contained, and see how the places and faces associated with the room contributed to its history. Anchored by the two virtual tours, the site offers users a deeply contextualized way to navigate the collections: some 400 digital objects, among them the room itself, the objects it has contained, as well as archival materials such as photographs, bills of sale, and correspondence.
