New Zealand: Digital Portal Allows Worldwide Access to Sarjeant Gallery (Whanganui)

The Explore the Collection digital portal allows anyone with access to the internet to search the entire Sarjeant collection according to filters of their choice – for example, artist, subject, year, medium, nationality, colour and object type.
