"Browsing by Geography allows you to focus on works created by an artist from a specific country or, in the case of architecture, the location of the work. Each county or region is further subdivided by object classification."

-ARTstor

"As you find images that interest you, ARTstor offers the ability to save them into groups. The image group utility within the ARTstor Digital Library allows you to gather, organize, share, review, edit, print, or present your chosen images. Image groups are accessible from anywhere you can log in to the ARTstor Digital Library."
