Your paintings: sheds

Your Paintings is a website which is putting up the entire UK national collection of oil paintings, details about them, and where to see them in the flesh in museums and other public places around the country. It is also fully searchable and brings up some interesting selections for the term "shed" (click the link to see them all). The project aims to catalogue all 200,000 paintings by the end of 2012. Above is The Brickmaker's Shed by Arthur Claude Cooke, c.1909, oil on canvas, 49.5 x 67cm.
