Using the search box:
• Search for a painting of Napoleon by the French Neoclassicist artist Jacques Louis David. At the search box, type in your keywords: david napoleon
• You may have noticed that your search brought up other artists and images besides those by David. That is because the search engine has done a keyword search and there was something about David and Napoleaon in the record somewhere. In order to retrieve more specific results, go into and search for David in the "creator only" field (an option in the drop-down menu). Now you will only get results for paintings about Napoleon done by David.
• Click on thumbnails to retrieve full-screen images. Make sure all pop-up blockers have been disabled on the computer.
• These images can now be saved and/or printed.
