Today we are excited to announce the pilot launch of USEUM Collectibles, an NFT platform that helps painters and illustrators from one end and aspiring NFT collectors from the other end, navigate the complex world of blockchain.

The best way to describe Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) is as the digital equivalent of signed editions (i.e. when artists sell signed and numbered editions of their work), albeit with cryptographic signatures instead.

Become a Patron today to gain exclusive priviledges and to help us keep up with the ever-increasing costs of running USEUM, allowing us to continue copyright-vetting more paintings, famous artists and museums for everyone to download unrestrictedly.

We are excited to announce the addition of the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the list of museums from which you can download copyright-free artworks and use them in any way you like!

“April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain.” - T.S. Eliot, The Waste Land
