Centuries old artwork from the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Is it presumptuous of me to create a module, using an API for a museum that I've never been to? Hell, I've never been to Amsterdam, either, but my answer is still, "No, it's not." I like art. I like making MM modules. I found the API and you didn't. ;^)

No big secret here. The artist's name. Below that the artwork is displayed. Below that, the name of the piece, the artist's name again, and the year.

• Shown with header

,

• Annotated .css file included for aligning and coloring text and header.

• git clone https://github.com/mykle1/MMM-Art into the ~/MagicMirror/modules directory.

• Get your API key from https://www.rijksmuseum.nl

To access the data and images, you must request an API key. Then you can join your advanced settings in your National Student Account (https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/rijksstudio). You will get a code immediately.

	header: "Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands",   // Any text you want
	maxWidth: "300px",             // Stretch or constrain according to region
	animationSpeed: 3000,          // New artwork fades in and out
