Art Objects
Scope and Contents note
The Art Object Series contains artifacts used in the fabrication of an object and the documentation of the object in its completed form. The series has been divided into five subseries. Each subseries came to the archives in a somewhat self-segregated manner in which no order existed. The first subseries processed was Images where the processor imposed a categorization by object type. A separation between Jewelry (mostly gold) and all other objects (mostly silver) already existed. From there, subdivisions were enacted to find all images of the specific art objects. Most of the documents relating to jewelry only exist in the Images subseries. The subdivisions of the silver objects: bottles, bowls, candlesticks, other, pitchers, service sets, and utensils were applied in the subsequent processing of the other subseries.
