- Motivation
I don't want to create a property for every museum collection out there, only if it really adds something. In this case the museum has quite a few nice entries that seem to be sourced to a catalog. They seem to have records for people we don't have linked to any authority control yet (like Vittore Zanetti Zilla (Q4015193)). Some of their records (like this one) already link to several other sources like ULAN, GND and even Wikipedia. So I guess we can already import quite a few of these links based on our existing records. I'm currently importing about 3700 paintings from this collection and will connect these to the painters. Quite a few painters probably already exists, but I'm quite sure I'll have to create some new ones. This property is a nice addition to this list. Multichill (talk) 11:38, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Support Interesting, and this looks promising indeed. Might be worth checking if you can x-reference their stuff with the Marburg bildindex. I would use that more if it were interconnected to ULAN etc. Jane023 (talk) 12:10, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
- Support. Looks like a source that would provide high-quality information. YULdigitalpreservation (talk) 13:18, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
