Looking for art featuring horses? No problem: the app's search bar works a lot like the feature in Google Photos -- handily pulling out exhibits to match your query. Curious to explore a historic Cathedral? Take a 360-degree tour of St. Paul's with Google Street View, or pop your phone into Google Cardboard for a first-person experience. The app features daily news, themed lists and curated exhibits from partner museums, links to a new YouTube channel and even has a "Art Recognizer" mode that will identify paintings in select museums.

The app may be no substitute for going to your museum, but if you can't make it out to say, the Louvre, it's an incredible, easy way to experience humanity's artistic past.
