The Flemish paintings and drawings section of the Photo Archive will be unavailable for consultation from July 1, 2019, until approximately Spring 2020 while it is digitized.
The material will be digitized as part of PhotoTech, a Getty Research Institute project that will explore how photo archives might be used to enable advanced research into issues of cultural and artistic influence, historical transmission of visual ideas, and networks of exchange. PhotoTech will employ digital methodologies such as rapid image capture, computer vision, and machine learning to process and analyze images at scale.
