Linked Art / CDWA Mapping

Introduction

Categories for the Description of Works of Art (CDWA) is a Getty publication describing a set of guidelines for cataloging art and architecture.

Mapping

Remarks, citations, and page are repeated everywhere in CDWA, but the same pattern applies as from 1.5 and 1.6.
