Add movement gallery wings with period interiors and expand timeline features.
Movement galleries split large catalogs into chronological wings (~55 works), use era-themed 3D interiors with side-wall windows, wing navigator on the back exit, and front archways between wings. Also adds painting annotations, timeline event guides, portrait hover highlights, and documentation/API updates. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

|

|

1. **Timeline** — historical eras (Ancient → Contemporary) with definite or fuzzy date boundaries.
|
||||
2. **Movement flow** — art movements as curved SVG streams on the same year axis; documented predecessor→successor branches; portrait thumbnails placed along each stream.
|
||||
3. **3D gallery** — one personal hall per artist; paintings on the walls, open centre, single exit for influence-based navigation.
|
||||
4. **Painting detail** — full work in the centre, *Influenced By* on the left, *Influenced* on the right (paintings, artists, or movements), prev/next catalog browsing, optional fullscreen, link to artist biography.
|

3. **3D gallery** — one personal hall per artist *or* a **movement gallery** (click a movement name on the flow diagram): period-themed interiors, chronological wings of up to ~55 works, side-wall hang only.

4. **Painting detail** — full work in the centre, *Influenced By* on the left, *Influenced* on the right (paintings, artists, or movements), optional **art-history notes** with image markers, prev/next catalog browsing, optional fullscreen, link to artist biography.
|
||||
5. **Artist biography** — portrait, lifespan, movement, and Wikipedia-sourced intro text (`bio_short` / `bio_full`). With debug mode on, the same image-audit panel as painting detail (portrait search, **Checked** / **Fix it** / **More** / **Clear** / **Upload**).
|
||||
|
||||
All artwork images are stored locally under `data/images/` — the UI never hot-links to Wikipedia or Commons at runtime (except optional on-demand fetch when a file is missing).

## Virtual gallery (3D halls)
|

The 3D scene supports two modes in `VirtualGallery.tsx`: **artist halls** (personal catalog) and **movement galleries** (full movement collection, chronological).

**3D images** use locally cached files only (`galleryImageUrl` in `client/src/api/client.ts`). Remote fetches are too slow for realtime WebGL textures; call `POST /api/artists/:id/preload-images` before entering a hall to link disk files. While a texture is loading, the frame shows the canvas cover instead of a white placeholder.

### Movement galleries
|

Enter from the home page by clicking a **movement name** on the movement flow (`MovementBands.tsx` → `GET /api/movements/:id/gallery`).
|

|
||||
| Rule | Implementation |
|
||||
|------|----------------|
|
||||
| One gallery per movement | All paintings by artists in that movement, sorted chronologically |
|
||||
| Wings | Catalog split into wings of up to **55 works** (`movementHallLayout.ts`); large movements (e.g. Baroque) use multiple wings |
|
||||
| Paintings on walls | **Left and right walls only** — back wall reserved for exit, front for passage to the next wing |
|
||||
| Wall order | Along each side wall: **later works on the left**, **earlier on the right** (same convention as artist halls) |
|
||||
| Frame captions | **Year · artist** label below each frame |
|
||||
| Period interior | Each of the 26 seeded movements maps to a unique style in `movement-interior-styles.ts` (Italian palazzo, Baroque palace, NYC loft, white cube, etc.) |
|
||||
| Textures | Hi-res procedural wall/floor/ceiling maps with normal maps (`galleryProceduralTextures.ts`) |
|
||||
| Windows | **Side walls only** — placed in gaps between frames (high on the wall, no overlap with paintings); style matches the movement era |
|
||||
| Lighting | Daylight from windows + ceiling track lights + ambient/sun fill |
|
||||
| Back wall | **Exit double doors** → **Wing navigator** (jump to any wing) or **Exit to Timeline** |
|
||||
| Front wall | Open **“Next wing →”** archway when a later wing exists; walk through or press `E` when near |
|
||||
| Influence lamps | Same golden lamps as artist halls when `has_influence_links` is true |
|

Movement galleries do **not** use the predecessor/successor influence picker — that remains artist-hall only.

||||
|
||||
### Shared 3D behaviour
|
||||
|
||||
**3D images** use locally cached files only (`galleryImageUrl` in `client/src/api/client.ts`). Remote fetches are too slow for realtime WebGL textures; call `POST /api/artists/:id/preload-images` before entering an **artist** hall to link disk files. Movement galleries load painting lists from the API without a separate preload step. While a texture is loading, the frame shows the canvas cover instead of a white placeholder.
