Web Gallery of Art – European Art Database
History: Created by Emil Kren and Daniel Marx in 1996, it is a pioneering virtual museum and searchable database of European fine arts from the 11th to mid-19th centuries.
Functionality: It features over 48,000 reproductions and biographical notes of over 4,900 artists. The site is known for its detailed, scholarly commentary on artworks and artists, making it a valuable research tool despite its older web design.
