ARTstor Digital Library and The Metropolitan Museum of Art are sharing more than 2,700 images of art and architecture from cities in Austria, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland, and of the Museum itself and the Cloisters museum and gardens, photographed by William Keighley. This is the second release in this collection, which also includes approximately 1,000 images documenting the pilgrimage routes to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Image Library houses the complete collection created by William Keighley (1889-1984), which consists of approximately 35,000 35 mm color slides. Keighley donated his slide collection to the Museum to educate the public on the unique art and architectural heritage of select areas of the world.
