Museum data

Overview

We use an early version of linked.art to model art objects. For more details on these patterns, see common patterns and the linked.art documentation.

Captions

In addition to the model's variances from linked.art, Museumbrowse gives special consideration to caption data, which can be useful in its own right independent of the fields it composes.

We take three captions on the source end and give them classifiers for their content as well as their classification as captions. Thus every museum object typically has three LinguisticObject nodes that denote the other lines of the caption:
