What is the quality and resolution of images in ARTstor?
The images in the Digital Library are derived from a range of sources. Collections may be built from color transparencies of varying resolution, scanned photographic prints, or direct digital photography of objects in museums and in the field. Professional vendors are utilized to digitize the analog materials at as a high resolution as permitted by the original source materials. One of ARTstor’s goals is to learn more about what approaches to building collections are appropriate for different uses in different institutional settings.
