Maybe this is old news but I found this the other day on googles world wonders project and I enjoyed it.

Historic Center of Florence

I thought it was an interesting way to experience a museum that I may not get the opportunity to experience in reality. You can go into the rooms to see some of artwork on display. The navigation can be a little rough.

The first room on the right contains various paintings of Jesus.

It's a wonderful museum. I was grateful to be able to tour it. You're right; the navigation is difficult, but it's nice to see it all the same.
