Where Art, Archives, and History Converge
The Brandywine River Museum of Art hosts a heritage collection of 19th and 20th century American art in the township of Chadds Ford, just southwest from Philadelphia. Known for their serene landscape paintings and collection of illustrated books, the museum delivers a wealth of beauty and history through their eMuseum site.
Enabling Deeper Exploration with Smart Search Tools
Using the Bibliography module from TMS, rather than Objects, the website displays collection objects in uniquely organized packages. This online database is searchable with an advanced search tool, delivering precise results in seconds. For researchers using the site, the Favorites feature provides an invaluable way to group and save relevant objects together for future reference.
