Recent additions to the ARTstor digital library are two new archives from the Negative Collection at the Frick Art Reference Library.
The first archive consists of over 3,000 large-format, glass plate negatives images produced by the Italian photographic firm of Sansoni and richly documents fresco cycles and other forms of architectural decoration throughout Italy. To find these images, from the ARTstor Welcome page click on “Image Gallery.” Choose “Sansoni Archive” to view all the images in this collection.
The second archive consists of nearly 4,000 large-format glass plate and nitrate negatives, as well as polyester “interpositives,” from A.C. Cooper and documents paintings as they passed through art auction galleries in London in the 1920s and 1930s. To find these images, from the ARTstor Welcome page click on “Image Gallery.” Choose “A.C. Cooper and Related Archives” to view all images in this collection.
The ARTstor digital collection contains approximately 400,000 images from many time periods and cultures, and documents the fields of architecture, painting, sculpture, photography, decorative arts, and design, as well as many other forms of visual culture.
