You know it was hilariously inevitable that someone was going to cruise the walls of Google Art Project checking out the hotties and collect them all into one place.

She’s obviously into bohemian-looking European men but she’s also extended the notion of cruising museums from the traditional type of cruising that happens at the Denver Art Museum or the Egyptian Museum in Cairo — “which somewhat bizarrely has a reputation of being a virtual kharakhana (brothel)” — or the Madam Brett Homestead Museum in Beacon, NY (link NSFW). I guess some people will always want more than pixels and zoomability.
