Image-rich reference records

Only records with a usable public image are shown here. Records without imagery remain available through the machine-readable dataset rather than weakening the visual gallery.

Why the counts differ: a connected source means Meta Museum has a governed adapter for that collection. A normalized reference record is a source snapshot retained locally for Linked Art review. Connection does not mean copying an institution's entire catalog.
