How LinkedCulture maps this record

To search objects from different museums together, LinkedCulture reads each museum’s record into a common set of fields. The values below are LinkedCulture’s, under LinkedCulture’s names. They are not The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s wording; the museum’s own record is shown above under its own labels.
