Where do you find large collections of hi res art? Old masterpieces and more modern pieces? Extra points if I can find stashes of hi res versions of NFTs that other people were silly enough to buy.

Totally agree, who knows when Google will pull the plug. I don't see this being very profitable for them. I already have a favorite artwork that's been removed, Two Sisters by Renoir. There's no legal reason I can imagine that they'd have to take it down so it'd have to do with ongoing deals they have with museums.

And that sounds like a cool project. Take a look at this:

https://dezoomify.ophir.dev/

At the top there's a browser extension and a desktop application. You can enter a url from google cultural institute and it'll request each image that constitutes the whole.

More info on the githubg: https://github.com/lovasoa/dezoomify

Another project more specifically aimed at google cultural institute: https://github.com/mewforest/google-art-downloader

And there's this one: https://github.com/piotrantosz/google-arts-crawler

Dezoomify is the most recently updated. I believe with a script, you'd be able to create a list of artworks you want full prints of and have it download them one by one.
