Discovery Exercise Part 1
1. I learned that Sitting Bull was a Native American shaman and leader of the Hunpapa Sioux. He fought against the Crow Indians and was at the battle of the Little Bighorn. After he was captured he toured with Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show.
2. I searched for Seth Bullock. I got 8 results, 3 from Montana Historical Society, 3 from Harvard University, 1 from Syracuse University & 1 from University of Wyoming.

Discovery Exercise Part 2
1. Paul Revere: I see prints, decorative arts & utilitarian objects, and paintings by him.
2. Sioux: I found 63 works including costume & jewelry, books, dolls, sculptures, drawings & watercolors, decorative arts & utilitarian objects, paintings, photographs. When you click on an item you get a description, who the creator is, where located, etc.
3. I searched for Van Gogh and found 45 works: paintings, drawings & watercolors, prints. I like the "View A High-Resolution Full Image".
4. This, obviously, would be a terrific resource for students doing reports or maybe for collectors as well.
5. I have never used CAMIO before. It was a lot of fun to choose paintings and try all the different things you can do with them after you add them to favorites.

Hi, Musings! We are happy to get you into exploring new territory with these resources. I, too, think CAMIO has a lot to offer for people wanting images. Thanks for your comments.
