Art Images offers you the wealth of a base of 30,000 artists and hundreds of thousands of works, which you can share and collect. This image base presents the works of the French museums that the Agence photographique de la Réunion des musées nationaux - Grand-Palais has digitized and documented.
Fostering discovery and sharing
On the site, walls of constantly renewed images offer a first entrance. The images are offered semi-randomly to promote discovery. Searches by categories are also proposed: artist, period, museum, technique, but also by dominant colors of the work.
Each new image offers unexpected rebounds towards other surprises.
Users can create image albums, accompany them with presentation text and share them.
The images are always accompanied by their information (title of the work, name of the author, museum, copyright).
Meeting educational needs
To accompany their pedagogical uses, teachers, students and the general public can download the images. A teacher can create an album of images, comment on it and share it with his class. A student can share an album with their classmates for a presentation. It can also easily integrate an image into a presentation. Students and teachers will be able to use Images d'art as the starting point for iconographic, artistic or documentary research, open to all museums. The links to the museums' sites and Wikipedia will allow them to go further in their documentary research.
The conditions of use of the images are clearly explained on the site in order to allow a secure use of the images for any user.
