If you are bored and feeling maybe a little bit stressed out, getting to know to know art history is a good way to combat those feelings. There are two great resources to get you though this extended period of time at home (one in Chinese and the other in English)

1) FIRST is BBC's Radio 4'spodcast series called "A History of the World in 100 Objects".  They offer their interpretation of history in different regions of the world though 100 objects in British Museum's collection. Each episode is about 15-minutes long and it is accompanied by the image of the object as well as the radio transcript on their site.
