Using this site, users can search the collections of the National Gallery of Australia, located in Canberra. Basic search options include artist or culture, title or keyword, collection area, and record type (all or just those with images). Advanced search options include media general (e.g., sculpture, painting), media category (e.g., leatherwork, costume accessory), place made, and technique. Initial returns are listed on the right-hand side of the browser, with artist, title, material, and availability of the image. Selecting one brings up the full record in the center frame, which includes title, date, alternative title, origin, medium, credit, accession number, and an image if available.
