Art museum!

It is very hard to find good scans of classical art of the Internet. It is very hard to find classical art in general. The least annoying site to navigate, WikiArt, tends to miss several important pieces of even the most popular classical artists, and will frequently upload faded or low quality scans. Navigating through other sites is nightmarish and usually requires inspecting the page to pull the proper image links for downloading. I have seen social media sites modify classical pieces without saying it, adding filters or colorings that weren't originally there.

To compensate, I have several of my favorite pieces in the max quality I could find below. Click an image in order to see its full size and download it.
