Web Notes


Photography at the National Gallery of Art
The Photo Collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is grounded on a large collection of the work of Alfred Stieglitz donated to the Gallery in 1948 by Georgia O'Keeffe. The collection now houses over 10,000 photographs from the beginning of photography through the modern era. The website has information on current and past exhibitions, educational materials and even podcasts on photographic subjects.

Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Online Catalog
Another rich resource for exploring photography's heritage is the collection at the Library of Congress, which can be accessed through the Prints and Photographs Online Catalog. Many of the photographs have been digitized, and may be viewed online or downloaded as JPG or TIFF files.  The catalog entry will indicate if copyright restrictions apply but many of the photographs in the collection are in the public domain.
