After four years of planning, considering, building, refining, testing, releasing, reconsidering, fretting, cropping, finetuning and re-cropping, Rijksmuseum launched Collectie Online—the successor to the Rijksmuseum's ground-breaking Rijksstudio collections platform.
Here are some of the possibilities the platform offers:
- Allow the viewer to look at zoomable high versions of all the objects the museum's allowed to publish
- Download all the images in high resolution for free
- Allow the viewer to make collection of their favourite objects
- Search through all the artworks, publications and user sets simoltaneously
- Intant access to museum stories, catalogues and recommended works for further exploration
- Linked data to build up fine-tuned search queries to get at just the objects needed
- Browse through the collection with thousands of pages highlighting objects fitting that category
- Carefully curated pages to help the viewer find their way in the collection
- Offer questions to the viewer and suggest them artworks that match your mood, vibe, or style
- The viewer can decide what works should hang in the Gallery of Honour
- Comparative study of the works in the collection
