Minor corrections in the database of paintings

The Art Globe App allows localization of more than 2400 paintings in almost 200 different museums and galleries. The database of paintings can be searched according to the painter, museum or gallery, art period and subject. The pages for museums and art galleries contain an interactive map with their exact location, a link to the website of the gallery and a link to the public transport in the respective city. You can choose from separate views of paintings sorted according to its author, location in the museum or gallery, subject, and art period. A separate timeline of paintings in steps of 50 years from 1250 to 1950 can also be chosen.
