Art Museum Image Gallery

This notice from Nov. 20 just caught my eye. So if an art database grows by 62,000 images, now that's impressive.

Drawn from over 1,800 distinguished sources worldwide, the new images include material from many of the most respected museums of Europe, Africa, South America, and Asia: Musée du Louvre, Paris; Museum der Stadt, Vienna; Bibliothèque des Arts Décoratifs, Paris; Musée du Château de Versailles; Museo del Prado, Madrid; National Anthropological Museum, Mexico; British Museum; Archaeological Museum, Istanbul; Archaeological Museum, Lima; Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg; Bardo Museum, Tunis; and others. Full bibliographic records accompany every image, and all images are rights-cleared for educational use.
