The Rijksmuseum Lets You Remix Its Art

The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is one of the grand European museums. Home to many of the Dutch masters.
All those masterpieces are now available for close-up view online at the Rijksmuseumâs digitized collection. Users can explore the entire collection, which is handily sorted by artist, subject, style and even by events in Dutch history. The new digital archive has all the same great learning potential as any other online collection. Itâs searchable, as is the museumâs library.

But the Dutch are a whimsical people, so it seems right that, in digitizing its collection, the museum went a step further than further. Not only can users create their own online galleries from selected works in the museumâs collection, they can download Rijksmuseum artwork for free to decorate new products.
