The Metropolitan Museum of Art Open Access Initiative

“In February 2017, The Met introduced its Open Access Initiative, which makes images of public-domain artworks and basic data on all accessioned works in its collection available for unrestricted use under Creative Commons Zero (CC0). Anyone can download, share, and remix images and data about artworks in The Met collection. It is also an important statement about The Met's commitment to increasing access to the collection in a digital age.”
