16.In museums all over the world,one rule defeats all others:look but don't touch the works.But what if you can't look?Why should being blind prevent a person from appreciating works of art that are not only masterpieces,but also an important part of his or her country's cultural history?That was the question facing the Madrid's Prado museum.As with many other European museums,the Prado has worked hard over recent years to widen access to its collections.Up until now,however,blind and partially sighted people have been unable to enjoy the museum's vast collection,which includes works by Goya,El Greco and Velazquez.The solution,the president of the museum concluded,was not simply offering audio or Braille(盲文)guides,but to create 3-D copies of key works,which visitors could touch.By inviting them to break the"no touching"rule in their new"Touching the Prado"exhibit,visually impaired (受损的)visitors can at last gain some appreciation of the works on display.
More than a year ago,then,the museum invited companies from across Spain to launch the project before choosing Estudios Durero,a Basque company specializing in the fine arts.What set them apart from their rivals was that,rather than using standard 3-D printing,they have developed a technique that they call"Didú,"which allows them to produce works that are both rich in texture (纹理)and color.Eager to keep the exact details of their process a secret,Velasco explained that it includes taking a high resolution image of a painting and then working with the blind and partially sighted members of the team to identify which details need to be emphasized.
A Madrid native,Fernandez,was born blind and is now visiting the Prado for the first time.41Yes,I can feel the texture of the skin,the short beards 2ind even the look of surprise on the men's mouths,"said Fernandez."We learned all about the great Spanish artists at school,of course,but it's only now that I can start to understand what made them special in their own unique ways."
Plans are in place to further expand the current exhibition to involve a wider sample of the Prado's collection and to make other museums and galleries more accessible to the visually impaired.28.What probably led to Tutankhamen's death according to the newest study?
