Visiting an art gallery can be a very rewarding experience compared to merely seeing the artwork on a screen or the page of a book.  When you see an a piece of artwork in the flesh, you can closely observe the technique the artist has used.  If it’s a painting, you can clearly see how they use their brushed by looking at all the different strokes.  You can also see how the layers are built up to create depth within the painting.  Whereas viewing an artwork via a computer screen or in a book, you cannot pick up all these details & see the hard work & effort that’s gone in to producing the work.  Also image compression can dilute the quality of image of an artwork which further decreases the detail you can observe as opposed to a gallery.
