Using images that you did not create require citation and the citation should be accessible in the context of the image's use. Citations can be formatted according to the citation style you are using (MLA, APA, Chicago Manual of Style).
To make citing easier, as you conduct your research, we recommend you keep track of:
- Image creator's name (artist, photographer, etc.)
- Title of the image
- Date the image (or work represented by the image) was created
- Date the image was posted online
- Date of access (the date you accessed the online image)
- Institution (gallery, museum) where the image is located/owned (if applicable)
- Website and/or Database name
