About this museum
The Kunstmuseum Basel grew from the Amerbach Cabinet, bought by the city of Basel in 1661 and often described as the first public art collection. It is known for works by Hans Holbein the Younger and the Upper Rhine painters, as well as nineteenth- and twentieth-century art. Artnap holds 263 works from the Kunstmuseum Basel, 263 of them paintings, shown first. The best-represented painters here are Paul Klee, Arnold Böcklin, Juan Gris and Konrad Witz. Each artwork page shows the museum's record, the date and the licence statement.
Questions
Can I use these images?
Yes. The works are in the public domain or released by their museums for open use, so you can use them in personal and commercial projects. Each artwork page shows the museum and its licence statement.
Are these all the works at the Kunstmuseum Basel?
No. These are the works that the Kunstmuseum Basel has published as public domain images and that Artnap holds; the museum's own collection is larger.
How large are the images?
Most are about 2,500 pixels on the long side, or the museum's own size when its file is smaller. Artnap Pro members can also download the museum's full-resolution master file where one exists.
