Instructions excerpt
The Metropolitan Museum of Art Collection API — 501,731 artworks spanning 5,000 years. Typical workflow: met_list_departments → met_search_collections (returns IDs) → met_get_object (full records, up to 20 per call). isPublicDomain=true guarantees CC0 open-access images; hasImages=true includes copyrighted works without usable image URLs. The medium filter maps to classification categories ("Paintings", "Sculptures") — not material descriptions.
