Abstract

Overview: For this pilot project, a collection of 495 tags that were assigned to 7 images from the Indianapolis Museum of Art were categorized by at least two individuals using a matrix that describes the subject matter of an image on two axes. One axis describes specificity, or an individual’s depth of knowledge about the content of an image (Generic, Specific, and Abstract). The second describes the type of subject matter expressed (Who, What, When, and Where) (Panofsky, 1962; Shatford, 1986). This core matrix was modified to include a Visual Elements category as well as an Unknown category to capture information not related to subject matter.
