Although it's great being able so see the image on your desktop the experience of seeing the actual artwork is very often much better.

On screen you'll miss out on much of the subtly of texture, surface finishes, scale, framing, the ability to look at it from different angles and distances and more. These all add a lot to the viewing experience.
