Art Social Network

Here is a link to the dump of a database of over 66,000 works of art: art.sql. The file is on cslab at /home/class/SoftDev/art/art.sql.

  • Author: AACHEN, Hans von
  • Born-Diec: b. 1552, Köln, d. 1615, Praha
  • Title: Allegory
  • Date: 1598
  • Technique: Oil on copper, 56 x 47 cm
  • Location: Alte Pinakothek, Munich
  • URL: https://www.wga.hu/detail/a/aachen/allegory.jpg
  • Form: painting
  • Type: mythological
  • School: German
  • Timeframe: 1601-1650\r

Your goal is to design and build a simple art social network. The basic idea is that people can create a profile, and then browse the art, commenting, giving up or down votes, or whatever you decide. The idea is that it is a space for be people to explore and discuss art.
