Picture: Rijksmuseum, Sir Anthony Van Dyck, Portrait drawing of Charles I (detail)
Splendid news*: the Rijksmuseum have now joined the growing band of museums that allow people to use their images for free, even in publications. The only proviso is that the work must be correctly attributed and captioned. As you can see from the Rijksmuseum's excellent website, good high-resolution images are available online already. To celebrate, here is a detail from one of Van Dyck's finest drawings, of Charles I.
