http://www.gallery.ca/indexartcanada

This database is now available online. It provides an index to works of art listed in Canadian exhibition, auction and collection catalogues, from 1823 (the date of the earliest catalogue so far identified) up to and including 1930.

The following catalogues have been indexed:


 *   all catalogues dated before 1900*


 *   all catalogues published by the National Gallery of Canada, as well as unpublished checklists of exhibitions held at the Gallery, from its foundation in 1880 to 1930*


 *   a growing number of catalogues for exhibitions held outside the National Gallery of Canada between 1900 and 1930.

In total, the database contains entries for over 74,000 entries for works of art in over 380 catalogues. The project has been supported by the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation.

* previously published as 'Index to Nineteenth-Century Canadian Catalogues of Art' and 'Index to National Gallery of Canada Exhibition Catalogues and Checklists 1880-1930', National Gallery of Canada Library and Archives Occasional Papers no. 6, ISBN 0888847866 (2004) and no. 7, ISBN 0888848352 (2007).
