Abstract (en)

The creation and development of art history has historically been linked with the availability of the technology of photographic reproductions. Present-day computer-based technology provides some new ways of handling such reproductions as well as novel instructional tools. After describing the development and evaluation of an interactive video disk system, the authors suggest some ways in which such an apparatus both provides new methods of teaching aesthetics and may suggest novel ways of thinking about art history.
