Colleagues,

I would like to know which search engine(s) you routinely use to find an
image of a specific painting, sculpture, etc.  For example, after
exhausting my print resources trying to locate Balling's painting "Grant
and his Generals" (1865), I tried phrase searching in various search
engines with mixed results.

Consequently, I am interested  in knowing your search engine preferences
when the title of the work is at hand and you don't have the time to
schlepp through classified  web directories to find a site that deals
with the topic, or a museum site that potentially owns the work.  In
other words, what do you use for the fabled  "quick and dirty" search?

I am sure other ARLIS listservees would be eager to read the responses,
so unless you are excessively shy, please respond to the group.
(Truthfully I am too lazy to summarize and organize all the responses.)
