The distribution of number of image files is as follows: n°1: 6855 n°2: 6974 n°3: 7984 n°4: 611 n°5: 683 n°6: 586 n°7: 547 n°8: 751 and n°9: 691. The image id-number is followed by the name of the artist. Thus images can also be retreived by name of artist.Given the goal of the Thematic Research Collection, i.e. categorization of the topic of the artwork, nor the size nor the quality of the images was of concern.All sources have been described in the pdf catalogues or in the CSV-files. It is believed that most images are in the public domain.The image set relates to the artworks (sculptures, reliefs, paintings, frescoes, drawings, prints and illustrations) compiled in the six Topical Catalogues of the Iconography of Venus from the Middle Ages to Modern Times and to the Artworks of non-European artists. Some images have duplicates in black-white or of different size.
