Den Emneatlas
Et diagram over Tara's korpus, kortlagt ikke efter dato, men efter emne. Egerne er det, de malede; ringene er hvornår; og trådene mellem stjernerne afslører de mæcener og steder, der i hemmelighed forbinder dem.

Tråde med delt kontekst
Farvede linjer forbinder værker, der er bundet sammen af samme mæcen, bestilling eller tema. Følg en kontekst for at se relaterede klynger lyse op på tværs af emner.
