| REALonline
- an interdisciplinary picture database |
| |
| By
means of the database REALonline the "Institut für
Realienkunde des Mittelalters und der frühen Neuzeit"
has a powerful instrument at its disposal which can be applied
in connection with various problems of cultural sciences. In
its present state - the database is continuously enlarged in
connection with systematic photographical documentation activities
of the institute, yielding an annual increase of about 800 objects
- REALonline comprises about 15.000 objects from the Middle
European area, covering a time span from 1200 until 1550. The
picture database includes panel paintings, mural paintings,
manuscript illumination, sculptures and preserved original objects
(objects of every day life, arms and armours, all kinds of instruments
etc.). The objects are described in detail in connection with
digitalized photos. The database is based on a hierarchical
structure which enables searching on the basis of combined characteristics
within single categories and groups of informations. The most
important of these groups concern artist, topic, artistic origin,
events, historical places pictured, persons, gestures, clothing,
objects, etc. |
