Omit maxItems to walk the entire collection.

  "publicDomainOnly": true,
  "maxItems": 500
}

{
  "mode": "filter",
  "artworkTypeTitle": "Painting",

  "maxItems": 200
}

Available filters:

Combine multiple filters in one run.

  "maxItems": 10
}

Use cases

Art analytics datasets — combine with the Met Museum actor for a comprehensive GLAM collection
Colour research — the color_h/s/l fields enable colour-palette analysis across 131k artworks
Style/subject taxonomy — style_titles and subject_titles provide ready-made ML training labels
Public-domain image pipelines — filter is_public_domain: true and use iiif_image_url for CC0 downloads
Museum collection monitoring — run incrementally to detect newly added records

Rate limits

The AIC API is fully open — no authentication required. The actor runs at ~60 requests/minute with a 1-second delay between pages, well within the API's polite-use advisory. No proxy is needed.
