In text citation

  • If you are citing an image from a printed source, reference the printed source as normal and use a page number in your in-text citation to indicate which page the image comes from.

Paraphrasing

Template

                                    (Artist last name Year published, p. number)

        • Use page number if the image is in a collection/ art book. If it is a solo artwork page numbers are not required.

Example

Gormley’s (1984) Angel of the North is a significant landmark of north London.

A key example of impressionist artwork can be seen in Gaunt’s work (1970, p. 17)
