I'm sure everyone is as thrilled as I am that we now have full-text access
to some of the core art history journals. Since I am always on the lookout
for access to images, I tried narrowing searches to "caption," as in "nu
assis."  This works to an extent--JSTOR does retrieve only those articles
with illustrations of "nu assis," but the"Page of First Match" function
does not apply.  This means a page-by-page search for the illustration.
Short articles present no problem, but it is tedious going through a 10+
page article.  I contacted JSTOR, but they do not indicate they will try
to rectify this inconvenience (!).  Perhaps more voices would make an
impression!
