The Artstor Digital Library is an image database featuring an unparalleled range of images from some of the world's leading museums, photo archives, scholars, and artists in one easily-navigated repository. It is the most comprehensive image resource available for educational and scholarly use, with many rare and important collections available nowhere else.
The library is constantly growing with new collections added monthly, continually expanding our areas of reference and study. All images are accompanied by comprehensive metadata and are rights-cleared for educational use.

Google Images can be useful, but overwhelming!
Make sure you are finding images that link back to reputable sources: the artist's own website, the gallery representing the artist, etc.
Also take advantage of the advanced search option to find images that are not under copyright restrictions, or to limit your search by file size. Do you have questions about copyright, creative commons, or fair use? Ask us!
