The Department of the History of Art (HART) digital collection consists of original photography donated by faculty, images provided by other University collections, images digitized from slides, books, journals, and prints as well as digital images licensed from vendors.
The Department’s images that were gathered to form the former slide distribution project, namely ACSSA and AAPD are also available through ARTstor, which we recommend as the optimal method of accessing these resources. If you are interested in using ACSAA or AAPD images in UMDL Image Portfolios, please contact us using via vrum@umich.edu. The third of the slide distribution projects, UMSD is in process of being added to this UMDL system.
In addition to digital images, the HART VRC image collections includes informational records without images attached. The majority are from the Eleanor S. Collins VRC Teaching Collections located in Tappan Hall. These data records are searchable along with the digital image data records. These informational records will display the text "View Records" in the space where an image thumbnail will appear for digital images.
Please note that images and records are added every week to this site as we continue to digitize the precious research of our globe-trotting faculty. This ever-expanding site will continue to change and grow as we work to include more of the archives online.
