Currently:

Glossary – terms used in our online glossary, not (currently) linked to objects
Keywords, comprising:

Functions
Genres
Periods and styles
Physical forms
Subject matter

Materials and techniques – will be linked to Medium (not Attributes) in due course
Places – linked to Geography Xrefs (not Attributes)
Timespans – 25-year blocks, to aid website browsing

These evolved from a set of legacy keywords, which we have retained; they’ll need much work before they’re fit for purpose (we’re getting there with one or two of them). Remember, our collection conatins only easel paintings in the western European tradition, c.1250-c.1900.

External Email - Exercise Caution

Hi all,

I am curious what sort of concepts everyone is tracking through attributes. Style, themes, motifs?

If anyone had a master listing of types of attributes linked to an object they would be willing to share that would be fantastic!

Thanks in advance,

Caitlin
