The Image Collection staff has finally finished a long-term project to make browsing easier and more accurate. Both the "
Browse by Category" and "
Browse by Creator/Artist"
links on the left side of the Image Collection page now lead to pages
with unique, authoritative and simpler entries. Previously, there were
often multiple entries for an artist due to alternate names,
misspellings or misattributions. Similarly, the Category page had
multiple entries for some categories, as well as categories no longer
used. These are now corrected, and browsing should be much simpler and
effective.
Additionally, content has been added in the following areas:
American Art: Paintings by Kenny Scharf and Julian Schnabel
African Art: Works of the Hausa people and scenes from the ceremonies of the Yako culture of Southeastern Nigeria.
Northern Renaissance: Works by Robert Campin and Rogier van der Weyden
Italian Renaissance: Paintings by Venetian painters Titian, Paolo Veronese and Jacopo Tintoretto
Baroque Art: Highlights from a recent exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum
Islamic Art: Works in glass owned by the Corning Museum of Glass
Architecture: Drawings and plans by Frank Lloyd Wright
