The Chicago Art Institute is a treasure. Large collection of the Impressionists, from Van Gogh to Monet, to post-Impressionist Seurat to Georgia O'Keefe. And that doesn't even scratch the surface. It's a great place to spend the day. Very cool that they're opening up their collection to the Internet, especially during a time like this. > Using our open API, people outside the museum have done some pretty awesome things, like allowing Alexa to browse our collection and creating a text message service that sends you a randomly selected Art Institute artwork. You can even add works to the video game Animal Crossing using the Getty’s Animal Crossing art generator. (Just click on Import using IIIF under Step 1. Manifest URLs can be found on our open-access artwork pages.) I hope this inspires other museums to follow suit.
