The PCF has partnered with the BBC to create Your Paintings, a unique website showcasing the entire collection of publicly owned oil paintings across the United Kingdom. Your Paintings Tagger, a pioneering crowd-sourcing exercise, will enable Your Paintings to be fully searchable.
Your Paintings will showcase the entire national collection of oil paintings. It launched this summer. By the end of 2012, it is expected to show 200,000 paintings from around 3,000 collections around the United Kingdom.
