Animal Crossing: New Horizons: Met Art Collection added to the Nintendo Switch game

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is closed during the COVID-19 epidemic, but there is another way: to embrace its work of art Crossing the Animals: New Horizons. Sure, you can catch some of these famous art galleries from Jolly Redd – but this one is free and officially guaranteed.

Like The J. Paul Getty Museum before it, the Met made its open access online is easily inserted into the middle Crossing the Animals: New Horizons.

It is too much

easy to use. You can check the collection online. Once you've decided what to add, click on the universal sharing icon – three dots connected by rows – and you'll see the Animal Crossing leaf icon. Selecting that will pull the converted image along with its QR code, which you can scan using the Nintendo Switch Online app for Android or iOS.

I have chosen Paul Cézanne & # 39; s Still Life with Apples and a jar of Primroses. It's not an easily recognizable image in the middle New Horizons, but it fits nicely among my flamingo lawn decorations. Unfortunately, Marina can't be bothered.

You want Katsushika Hokusai The Great Waves? Yours. Unicorn Rests in the Garden? Also available. Black Stork in Landscape it looks good imported into the game – that's my recommendation. Throwing pictures is the only clear entry, great composition also helps bring in the art of the game. Small details can be muddy. (Real talk, I should have invested Still Life with Apples and a jar of Primroses

focusing on the pile of apples.)

If you can't find the art you are looking for, check out Getty & # 39; s Animal Crossing Art Generator, which can pull pictures from other museums – as long as the IIIF (International Framework for Photographic Interaction). It's still a lot longer than The Met's performance, but it works.

There’s Jolly Redd, too. It's the only way you'll be creative in the Blows museum, but with these tools you can spread creativity to your island. That's it laws.
