On YouTube, the Getty Museum released a series of adorable videos titled “Animals in Art”

  The first four videos spotlighting one piece of furniture and three paintings, this series has the animals featured speak for themselves.  Obviously designed for children, the animals (voiced by actors who give the subjects exaggerated accents) impart facts behind their existence, along with humor and observations.  The last two videos act as commercials for two different animal-centric exhibitions provided by the Getty, the first one having something to do with the first four videos, but the last commercial went a nearly different direction.

All in all, I found the series cute and informative.  I also found it commendable that the Getty encourages people to investigate details in art.
