Public Domain Art

welcome to the hoard!

I enjoy browsing and collecting public domain art. Usually I have a vague idea of doing Something with it Eventually... even though I mostly don't. Sometimes I do though!

This is (part of) my collection, organized into categories. Of course, since it's all public domain, you're free to do whatever you want with any of this stuff!

Images are sourced from a variety of places! Some I crop and edit from public domain magazines and books myself using the Internet Archive's uploads. If you're interested in browsing more materials in the public domain, here's some links!

• The internetarchivebookimages flickr
• The British Library's flickr
• Rawpixel's public domain collection

• A collection of Open Image Collections!
