sponza atrium

The Atrium Sponza Palace, Dubrovnik, is an elegant model created by Marko Dabrovic at RNA Studio. It was graciously donated to the public for a radiosity competition held by CGTechniques.com in 2002 and was kindly converted by Christian Bauer into numerous other formats (Max, 3ds, Dxf, Obj, Dwg, Vrml97, Mega Pov, Rhino) for use with various commercial 3D applications and renderers. Over the years, the Sponza Atrium scene has since become one of the most popular 3D scenes for testing global illumination and radiosity due to it's specific architectural structure which is particularly complex for global illumination light distribution.
