Searchable database of digital images and associated catalog data, with new image collections added several times a year. ARTstor covers many time periods and cultures, and documents the fields of architecture, painting, sculpture, photography, decorative arts, design, anthropology, ethnographic and women's studies, as well as many other forms of visual culture. Users can search, view, download and organize images. TIP: To limit to searches for images that are in the public domain, you can run an Advanced Search limiting by Collection Type to "Public Collections."

Tip: To use the CLIO Articles search to search for images: First run a search with relevant keywords (for instance: Michelangelo AND scultpure). Then, on the results page, limit by "content type" to Image. To access digitized images, click on links reading "full text available." You can also limit by Publication Date to the desired date range.
