The Mnemosyne: Visual Culture Database houses more than 45,000 images of the fine arts, architecture, and archaeology with a wide selection of both Western and Non-Western subjects. We named the database Mnemosyne (pronunciation), the daughter of Uranus and Gaea, the personification of Memory, and, most importantly, the mother of the nine Muses, patron goddesses of the arts. The scope of the database reflects the curricula of the Department of Art History and Archaeology at Columbia University and Barnard College. This database is no longer updated with new images.
