      @maros Thanks for jumping in. I am using MMM-Wallpaper already.

      Its about a good source for curated art/pictures to show.

      I found Saatchiart, Artspace, Magnum Photos, Albertina, but was not able to find a plugin which pulls comparable sources.

        Of course, there is always a copyright issue to use commercial arts.
        I don’t know whether any kind of public domain arts exists and be open for digital usage. If there is, making module is not so difficult, I think.

              @Sean yes it looks great but for me the page is little bit slow :( so i’m not sure how fast it will work in module.

                First thing that came to my mind:
                “Every piece of art you’ve ever wanted to see – up close and searchable” by Amit Sood at TED, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjB6DQGalU0
                (if you don’t watch the full 15 min, check 4:00 min)

                https://artsandculture.google.com/

                In a quick search, I couldn’t find any current information on whether there is an API, but I’d guess so.

                  @doubleT I cannot find API. I think that is some kind of magazine not service with available API. Anyway, that’s nice program.
                  @Maros NGA doesn’t have API. Maybe crawling can be available, but…

                  I found Rijks Museum (in Amsterdam) and Tate (London) and something else.
                  So, I made MMM-Rijks first.

                        I’m sure there’s an API for Arts&Culture. Everything on Google has an API. And it’s in the Cloud. There’s API documentation for the previous version, Google’s “Project Art” / “OpenGallery”.

                        Edit: https://developers.google.com/opengallery/ => 404 :(
                        https://opengallery.culturalspot.org/home
                        Everything seems reachable … :/

                          @doublet But I cannot find any REAL API. all of links to API was broken or removed.
                          In the cloud console, I cannot find also the related API - “art” or “gallery” or anything seemed related.
                          Have you more information?
