Using Search Filters

After selecting which content to filter by, you will see an additional set of filters on whichever page you selected. For example, if you selected "Artwork", you will be able to filter by artwork type, artwork medium, artwork period, artist, and the on-view location of the work. You will then be able to  sort your results by chronological order, reverse chronological order, and relevance.
