In preparation for future experiments, linked art metadata is now available for some entries…
…at least for posts that deal with artworks.
Linked Art is a metadata standard that was developed specifically for describing cultural objects and their provenance (i.e. history). It is based on the CIDOC-CRM data model and uses JSON-LD to exchange information about artworks, artists and provenances in a web-based and machine-readable format. This makes it similar to LIDO.
Examples for individual posts / pages:
- Flamingo by Fritz Neumann
- Kinder byElsa Haensgen-Dingkuhn
- Boltenhagen by Tadeusz Kaczmarek
- “Alte Steintreppe vor bäuerlichem Gehöft” by François Poggi
The respective JSON-LD files are referenced in the HTML header:
<link rel="describedby" href="https://christianmahnke.de/post/painting-kaczmarek-tadeusz/linkedart.json" type="application/ld+json;profile='https://linked.art/ns/v1/linked-art.json'"/>
