worldpaintings:The Prado Museum in Madrid launches an exhibition in which blind people can enjoy classical paintings by touching their texture and relief.We have never been given a chance to touch a painting in a museum, so this is definitely a unique experience – to be able to engage with replica pieces, including the Mona Lisa, through touch.The exhibition at Prado displays tactile versions of paintings by artists like Da Vinci and Goya. The paintings enable blind people to get a clearer vision of the artworks. The reliefs were created using a special technique called “Didu” that adds volume and texture to 2D art.The pioneering project will be in Madrid until the end of June.Credits: All photos by Getty Images. -- source link
