PIA IIIF API

The material that can be consumed through the APIs is part of two collections from the Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Volkskunde. The first collection spans more than 100 years (1860 - 1970) of private photographs of the family Kreis in Basel. The second collection contains the photographic work of the Swiss journalist Ernst Brunner, who was active roughly between 1937 and 1962.

The IIIF API enable the consumption of images as well as their related IIIF JSON manifest, which contain metadata as well as image data. We have an IIIF Image API. The image material is licensed under CC-BY-NC 4.0 and as such needs to be considered as closed source. The images can be access through the Metadata as well as the IIIF Presentation API.
