Vincent van Gogh: Masterworks
Explore the famous artworks created throughout Vincent van Gogh’s short, yet extremely prolific, artistic career.

Our Technology
What is a "tactile image"?
A tactile image harnesses the senses of touch, sound, and smell to help the blind and visually impaired community experience visual knowledge in a meaningful way.
Having worked extensively with the blind community, our patented technology allows the visually impaired to creat accurate mental pictures of visual imagery without the need for a sighted companion.
