The Bridgeman Art Library, based in London, Paris, New York, and Berlin, provides one of the largest archives for reproductions of works of art in the world. Founded in 1972 by Harriet Bridgeman, the Bridgeman Art Library cooperates with many art galleries and museums to gather images and footage for licensing. The Bridgeman Art Library currently trades as 'Bridgeman Images', with affiliated companies including Bridgeman Footage, Bridgeman Studio and Bridgeman Education.
The Bridgeman Art Library is a company that represents museums, art collections and artists throughout the world by providing a central source of fine art and photography for image users.
The company's aim is to make these images accessible for users on a commercial basis; each one has been catalogued with full picture data and key-worded to simplify the search process. A full research service is also provided whereby expert researchers can select images to the customer's requirements.
In addition to fine art, designs, antiques, maps, architecture, furniture, glass, ceramics, anthropological artefacts and many other media are featured in the collection.
