"Update: The Metropolitan Museum of Art has put online 492,000
high-resolution images of artistic works. Even better, the museum has
placed the vast majority of these images into the public domain, meaning
they can be downloaded directly from the museum’s website for
non-commercial use. When you browse the Met collection and find an image
that you fancy, just look at the lower left-hand side of the image. If you
see an “OA” icon and the words “public domain” (as shown in the example
below), you’re free to use the image, provided that you abide by the Met’s
terms.
In making this collection available online, the Met joined other
world-class museums in putting large troves of digital art online. Witness
the 88,000 images from the Getty in L.A., the 125,000 Dutch masterpieces
from the Rijksmuseum, the 50,000 artistic images from the National Gallery,
and the 1.9 million images from the British Museum."
