Travel Awards 2011: A Shakespeare Gallery
Julia Reinhard Lupton, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, University of California, Irvine
"ARTstor has changed the way I teach Shakespeare. Images of the Globe Theater and panoramic maps of Elizabethan London set the stage for our engagement with the plays. Veronese’s Wedding at Cana [left] puts the cosmopolitan world of sixteenth-century Venice on
extravagant display, with an African cup-bearer, turbaned Turks and Moors, court musicians, fantastical
wedding costumes, and a stage-like setting.”
- Illustrative use of visual images to provide historical context
- ARTstor mages create design backdrops for student readings of scenes from Shakespeare
- Images great enhance student learning and experience

Travel Awards 2011: Online Teaching and Architectural Solutions to Climate Problems in the Islamic World
Colette Apelian, Fine Art faculty, Berkeley City College
- Introduction to Islamic Art History Course
- Images for class are organized thematically, with a focus on fine and utilitarian objects and buildings
- Images show technology, materials, and plans that naturally temper hot and dry climate conditions
"ARTstor has helped me create digital bridges between students and
subject matter...ARTstor’s varied content has also
helped me be more efficient. I can find most of the images I need in
one location without additional searches, imports, and scans."

Travel Awards 2012: Silk Through the Ages
Amelia Nelson, Cataloging and Digital Services Librarian, Kansas City Art Institute
"The ARTstor image group complemented our physical collection and also provided unique
imagery documenting the history of the silkworm industry and examples of silk used across cultures
and throughout history."
- Images were used for a class on fiber history to show the weaves of different silk textures and track the evolution of the fabric over time
- High resolution of images allow students to zoom in and see repairs and textures of fabric
