| The Photoarchive is a study collection of more than one million
photographic reproductions of works of art from the fourth to the mid-twentieth
century by artists trained in the Western tradition. The Photoarchive was
founded first and foremost to facilitate object-oriented research; the
documentation it offers traces the essential elements of the biography of the
work of art — changes of attribution, ownership, and condition. The images,
together with the historical information, provide an unparalleled resource for
the study of the history of art.
