Hi Everyone, ARTstor recently launched "Art History Topics" which are curated image groups based on major subject areas in the history of art and architecture. We have tried to include the best quality photograph available in the Digital Library whenever possible. Of course, these are just starting points for exploring various topics, but should cover a good number of seminal works taught in introductory level art history courses. There are also "InterdisciplinaryTopics" available. On the Search page, just go to Browse> Featured Groups. We will be adding additional groups in the coming months. Let us know if you have any suggestions for new groups. Thanks!

You can then do an advanced search on "Janson" or "Gardner" or "Fleming" etc. Fleming brings up 684 images, for example.

We are trying to figure out how to make images available to students without doing an image by image search. Are also exploring what prentice hall is calling MyArtsLab...it looks like it is a supplementary thing, but am having a devil of a time finding a good explanation of it on their site... Any and all information will be much appreciated! Thanks. Anne -- Anne B.
