Web Gallery of Art, searchable fine arts image database (wga.hu) The Web Gallery of Art is a searchable database of European art and architecture containing approximately 51.400 reproductions. Among all the information it contains, you can find biographies of artists, catalogs, free postcard, etc. Although I don't use it that often I think it is an excellent site because it has very good quality reproductions so every time I have to show some reproduction in university work I resort to this virtual gallery.  I like it mainly because it is a way to be closer to works that we can only access through photographs. It is common that when we look for a reproduction on the internet, mainly the colors are very distorted wich creates a false image of the works we are trying to see but thanks to this platform we have access to very amazing reproductions. Another advantage is that when we zoom into the image, the detail is wonderful, without losing the quality of the image, so I recommend it
