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 Rijksmuseum?

No. These are the works that the Rijksmuseum 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.
