Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History

The Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History (at the Metropolitan Museum of Art website) visually organizes art into its historical context. When I say art, I mean from all over the world, from 8,000 B.C. to present day, which is one of the most amazing things I have seen in quite some time– for free!

But perhaps even more useful is the thematic essay section, which not only serves up an interesting account of the subject in question, but also gives useful links below the article text. This is one resource that I know I will be referencing in the future.
