The Frick Art Reference Library is pleased to announce that images for 15,000 works of art and research documentation for 125,000 works of art cataloged in the library’s photoarchive are now available online (http://www.frick.org/assets/PDFs/Press_2011/photoarchive.pdf).
The 15,000 images can be accessed in the new Frick Digital Image Archive (http://images.frick.org). They record works of art photographed between 1922 and 1967 by staff photographers in private homes and small public collections throughout the United States and in New York City galleries and auction houses. The negatives from these photography expeditions were digitized and made available online through generous funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Henry Luce Foundation. The NEH designated the project as part of its “We the People” initiative to encourage and strengthen the teaching, study, and understanding of American history and culture.
The research documentation for these 15,000 paintings, drawings, and sculptures, as well as 110,000 other works of art cataloged in the photoarchive, is now available in the catalog of the New York Art Resources Consortium, Arcade (http://arcade.nyarc.org/search~S7). In addition to basic information about the artist, title, medium, dimensions, date, inscriptions, and owner, the documentation includes provenance, former attributions, variant titles, and biographical information for portrait subjects.
