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!

"All reformers are bachelors." - George Moore

"Art is born of humiliation." - W. H. Auden

USEUM is featured in The UCL Bartlett Doctoral Review 2018 for its contribution towards increasing access to art online.

"Of all lies, art is the least untrue." - Gustave Flaubert 

"To draw, you must close your eyes and sing." Pablo Picasso

“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

"No great art has ever been made without the artist having known danger." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

On USEUM you can download more than 20,000 royalty-free images of artworks that you are free to use for any purpose even commercially. You can download an artwork in 2 ways: from a list of artworks, or from the artwork page. Both ways are demonstrated below.
