Wikidata Project: Human’s best friend portrayed in paintings.

An exploration of paintings featuring dogs found on the Wikidata open data repository.

Using Wikidata query service and Python I was able to retrieve data from the Wikidata repository to use for my final assignment in Programming for Cultural Heritage at the Pratt Institute. I choose a topic that was fun to me and that combined two of my favorite subjects: dogs and art. Check out my process, analysis, and results of the project at the following google site.
