	Insecula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Insecula: L'encyclopédie des arts et de l'architecture is a French language art website containing images and descriptions of thousands of works of art from major museums and collections in France and elsewhere, including the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, the Palace of Versailles, the Centre Pompidou, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the MOMA.
		All in all, Insecula is often more comprehensive than the museums' own official websites.
		As of 2005 Insecula is supported by advertising.
