Discussing the Divine Comedy with Dante
In 2006, three Chinese/Taiwanese artists, Dai Dudu, Li Tiezi, and Zhang An created an oil painting with 103 figures from world history. If you hold your cursor over a figure you see his or her name. If you click on the figure it will take you to Wikipedia where you can access the historical information.
I can imagine building an interdisciplinary unit with the arts and social studies. The painting contains artists and musicians.
