Dear ArtConversation Visitors,

Peabody Essex Museum has a nice feature - this was recommended in Scout Report.

ARTscape [Macromedia Flash Player]
http://www.pem.org/artscape/index.php

Located in Salem, the Peabody Essex Museum is well known for its very
diverse collections which include 18th century American decorative art,
Korean paintings, and their wide selection of maritime art, including
scrimshaw. With over 2.4 million pieces in their collection, it is no
surprise that they also have developed ARTscape, an online multimedia tool
that allows visitors to create their own themed collections. After
registering, visitors can begin to browse through the different collections
(or perform a keyword search) and pick out objects as they see fit. It's
also worth noting that these collections include video and audio clips as
well, so visitors will truly be able to create a unique collection of their
own. [KMG - review by Max Grinnell]

I browsed several collections and made connections without registering. I imagine one has to register to save or bookmark the collections.
