Ambient Art: Impressionist Art Gallery...delightful

"I enjoy images...and viewing them in different ways...and this DVD, Ambient Art really provides that experience. 350 paintings that can be viewed as a slide show or as a movie (image is scanned) and with either classical music or a more contemporary music. It is so good for me...I wish Ambient art would do a disc on Grandma Moses, one on Maxfield Parrish and one on Thomas Hart Benton...so we would also have some American images available.
The Impressionist disc has 11 artists and you can select the artists you want to see, the length of time you view each, etc. It is very pleasant to have on at a party...no sound. Well, I just like it a lot, and if you enjoy art here is an art experience different from a museum or a book. For me, it fills a need...I hope it will for you."
Awesome

"This made for a very nice and classy background while I had a dinner party. Many people gravitated towards it, and I overheard some nice comments. Only use this for your more sophisticated friends though, the hillbilly side of my family showed up and tried to change the channel..."
DVD Inoperable on BluRay and Computer DVD

"It seems that technology has left this DVD by the wayside, since it fails to play on my Samsung BluRay or on either of my computer's DVD players. Prior to this DVD I have had no problems with viewing new or old DVDs or BluRay discs. The problem may be in format used on the DVD. Beware."
Would not load correctly

"I don't know if it is a problem with the DVD or the Samsung BluRay player but this is the only disc of the four I ordered that would not work in the machine. I just saw a previous reviewer stated having the same problem and wished I had read it prior to ordering this DVD. I'm really bummed because this was the DVD I was most looking forward to watching."
Low Resolution is Disappointing

"I give them credit for the compilation of the art and the variety of presentations, but I expected better quality images. The "high resolution" wallpaper versions are 1024 x 768, which include a large border with the "Ambient Art" title overlapping the many of the images. The actual image is roughly 800 x 500 depending on the painting."
