Parameters

title

The title of the artwork. Defaults to the page name.

painting_alignment

The alignment of the infobox. Defaults to right-alignment. It should almost always be "right", but can also be "left".

other_language_1

Language of secondary title

other_title_1

Secondary title. Italicized unless Template:Para.

other_language_2

Language of tertiary title

other_title_2

Tertiary title. Italicized unless Template:Para.

wikidata

QID of the specific Wikidata item

image

The name of the image file to display, without the "File:" prefix

image_upright

Image scaling factor; see WP:IMGSIZE for the image size policy

alt

Alternative text for image

caption

Caption for image

artist

Name of the artist(s) who created the piece

year

Use Template:Tl unless before 1583 CE.

completion_date

Use Template:Tl; alternative to Template:Para.

catalogue

Reference in a catalogue raisonné.

type

Deprecated due to ambiguity. Use medium and movement instead.

medium

Material used by the artist or designer to create the work of art. Examples: "Oil on canvas", "Bronze sculpture", "Ceramic tile"

movement

Art movement, or movements, typically associated with work of art or time during artist's career when work of art was created. Must be verifiable through sources. Examples: "Post-Impressionism", "Pop art"

subject

Subject(s) of the artwork

dimensions

See #Dimensional parameters section below

weight

Weight of the artwork ()

designation

Legal protection granted to the artwork

condition

Condition of the artwork

museum

Museum that currently houses the artwork

city

City in which the artwork is currently located

coordinates

Use Template:Tl, but only for the exact coordinates (when known) of the artwork's own location, i.e. not coordinates for the site, building, structure, etc. where it is kept; leave blank otherwise.

owner

Current owner of the artwork

accession

Accession or similar reference in the museum's database.

preceded_by

Preceding work by the same artist

followed_by

Next work by the same artist

module

an embedded template

website

Use Template:Tl, but only for an official webpage or website.

Dimensional parameters

This template includes code that allows input of dimensional information: any of height, width, length, and diameter, as well as a freeform parameter for adding nonstandard information.

There are 11 parameters, of which most fall into two groups of unit types: Template:Hlist

These define the respective values for Imperial or US customary units such as the foot or inch. If the imperial unit is set to feet, inch specification can be added with Template:Mono, otherwise these Template:Mono-suffixed parameters should not be used.

These define the respective values for SI (metric) units such as the metre (meter) or centimetre (centimeter).

Once raw numerical values are established in the above parameters, the units are set in the imperial_unit and metric_unit parameters, which default to inches and centimetres respectively.

If information is provided in only one unit system, it is automatically converted to the other using the unit that is defined for that system. In general, this should be used, as for most pieces of artwork measurements will only be taken in one unit system. Do not use a comma as decimal indicator for metric units (as used in some European and other countries) since the conversion does not recognize commas and the imperial measurement will be calculated incorrectly (e.g. use 30.8 not 30,8).

Users should take care to avoid false precision: measurements should be provided in the same unit, and with the same number of significant digits, as when they were taken. ("1 metre" is far less precise than "1000.00 millimetres", even though they are, in theory, the same length!)

If additional dimensional data is needed, the dimensions parameter can be used to add freeform information to the end of the rendered string. This parameter accepts raw wikitext and is not subject to any automatic conversion or modification (Template:Tl would have to be used manually).

References concerning artwork dimensions can be appended to the dimensional data by placing them in the optional dimensions_ref parameter.

Map and coordinates

The coordinates= parameter is used to display coordinates in the infobox, and optionally at the top of the page; use the Template:Tl template.

Two types of maps are available: pushpin maps (static) or mapframe maps (dynamic).

Pushpin maps

{{Infobox artwork
...
| coordinates         = <!-- Use the {{Coord}} template. -->
| pushpin_map         = <!-- Location name used for Template:Location map -->
| pushpin_map_alt     = <!-- Location name used for Template:Location map -->
| pushpin_relief      = 
| pushpin_label_position =
| map_dot_label       = 
| map_size            = 
| pushpin_map_caption = <!-- Text to be displayed below map; for no caption enter "pushpin_map_caption="; -->
...
}}

Mapframe maps

A Mapframe map is automatically included if:

• It has been turned on by setting Template:Para
• There are coordinates specified in Template:Para, or if the Wikidata item for the page (or as specified in Template:Para) has a value for Template:Q
• No pushpin map has been specified

The following optional parameters can then be used to adjust the map

• Template:Para zoom level (default is Template:Kbd)
• Template:Para and Template:Para for the map size (defaults are Template:Kbd and Template:Kbd)
• Template:Para for the marker icon (default is Template:Kbd)
• either Template:Para or Template:Para for the marker colour (hex triplet, default is Template:Kbd)
• either Template:Para or Template:Para for the stroke colour (hex triplet, default is Template:Kbd)
• Template:Para caption below the map
• Template:Para and Template:Para (or Template:Para and Template:Para) – alternate initial latitude and longitude for the map, instead of the hospital's coordinates. Specify as a decimal number.
