Andrew Ellis, from the public catalogue foundation, said: "No other country has ever embarked on such a project to make accessible online its entire collection of oil paintings.

"The result is an extraordinary rich and varied virtual gallery of paintings with styles and subject matters to suit all tastes and interests.

"Anyone can now contribute to the project by tagging paintings so that the paintings can be searched in future. Tagging is easy, fun and really quite addictive."
