Digital Exhibition: Accessories at the Rijksmuseum

The Rijksmuseum, in the Netherlands, has put together an amazing online exhibition on accessories.  Called Accessorize, it covers 1550-1950.

It’s a Flash-based site that’s SLOW to load, but worth it.  You can browse by period, object, color, material, and topic, and then look at individual items with the ability to do an level of AMAZING zoom.
