"Since the J. Paul Getty Museum launched its Open Content program back in
2013, we’ve been featuring their efforts to make their vast collection of
cultural artifacts freely accessible online. They’ve released not just
digitized works of art, but also a great many art history texts and art
books in general. Just this week, they announced an expansion of access to
their digital archive, in that they’ve made nearly 88,000 images free to
download on their Open Content database under Creative Commons Zero (CC0).
That means “you can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even
for commercial purposes, all without asking permission.”
The Getty suggests that you “add a print of your favorite Dutch still life to
your gallery wall or create a shower curtain using the
Irises by Van
Gogh.” But if you search the open content in their archive yourself, you can
surely get much more creative than that."
