CDWA version 2.0



Categories for the Description of Works of Art" Version 2.0 Now Available on
the Web

The Getty Standards Program has mounted a revised version of "Categories for
the Description of Works of Art," at
http://www.getty.edu/gri/standard/cdwa/.  "Categories for the Description of
Works of Art" is a metadata standard for art objects and their visual
surrogates, developed by a task force sponsored by the College Art
Association and the Getty Trust.  Version 2.0, overseen by Patricia
Harpring, Managing Editor of the Getty Vocabulary Program, includes a fully
revised text, new sections covering artist, subject, and other
"authorities," an entity relationship diagram, and 32 cataloging examples of
different types of works of art and material culture, with accompanying
images. The CDWA definitions document (with examples) is available as a PDF
file for easy printing.
