how to find the artist of an image
Hi Petra, I came across a beautiful painting online and I'm trying to figure out who the artist is. Can you help me with this?
Certainly. There are a couple of methods you could follow. One involves using Google's reverse image search. You just need to upload the image, and Google will find similar images along with their sources. It’s possible this way to find the artist's name.
That sounds simple and convenient. How exactly do I do a reverse image search on Google?
You go to Google Image search. There you'd find a camera icon in the search box. After clicking on it, you'll get an option to upload an image or paste a URL of an image. Google then provides search results related to that image.
Great, let me try. What if I still couldn't locate the artist with this method? Do you have any other strategies?
Another valid approach is to use special art identification apps like Smartify, which was designed specifically for this purpose. Once you upload the image to the app, it attempts to identify the artwork and supplies information about the artist.
