Cinema Image GalleryUnprecedented access to movies and television for education, research, and enjoyment.

An essential companion to Art Museum Image Gallery and a key resource in its own right, this unique database features an unparalleled range of pictures, posters, video clips, and other material from the world of film and television from the late 19th century to the present day.

As well as up-to-the-minute content from recent releases, Cinema Image Gallery presents the history of movie making through high-quality stills from film sets of directors working on-set with the stars, set, costume, and production design stills, hair and make-up shots, rare behind-the-scenes material, and more. This rich resource also offers an extensive collection of television stills, featuring thousands of pictures of the stars of this medium as well as on-set shots from classic and modern examples of comedies, dramas, series, TV movies, game shows, and more.

Search seamlessly with any other component of the Wilson Art Suite—Art Full Text, Art Index Retrospective: 1929-1984, Art Museum Image Gallery, or Avery Index to Architectural Periodicals—for the fullest possible search results to any art-related query, or search Cinema Image Gallery alone for images to use in lessons on history, religion, social studies, literature, cultural studies, area studies, women’s studies, and theater department and community theater research on set design, period costumes, period furniture, period technology, and more.
