Everything you need to know
The Joconde database from the Ministry of Culture lists approximately 700,000 records of works preserved in French museums. On dellarte.fr, more than 300,000 records with digitized images are accessible. This number increases regularly as digitization programs progress.
The Joconde database is the collective catalog of collections from French museums, managed by the Ministry of Culture. It catalogues artworks and patrimonial objects from museums labeled 'Museum of France' and is freely accessible at data.culture.gouv.fr under Open License v2.0.
The Joconde database covers all artistic and patrimonial fields: painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, photography, archaeology, decorative arts, ceramics, goldsmithing, numismatics, ethnology, furniture, textile, and many others.
The availability of images depends on each museum and the rights associated with the work. Many records include a photograph of the work; others only provide a textual description, especially for works still under copyright.
