Art Images for College Teaching
"The express purpose of this database, which offers 1,100 images
personally photographed on location by the site's creator, is to
freely disseminate images of important art and architecture. The
collection is organized into five categories: Ancient, Medieval,
Renaissance & Baroque, 18th - 20th Century, and Non-Western, but
lacks a search for specific images. Each photograph is concisely
described and accompanied by cross references to discussions in one
or more of 20 widely used art history survey textbooks. Emphasizing
that the site is a "Free Use Educational Resource," Kohl encourages
any use that is both educational and non-commercial, which will help
college, community college, and high school AP faculty without the
resources to license expensive collections.
