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”, 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.
