Extending "Account" Features
It would make the website more dynamic if it had features akin to last.fm, whereby users can (a) love paintings (b) favourite artist, allowing for easy return to liked content. This information could be shared with others, along with (c) recently viewed paintings.

Leonardo da Vinci
Chronology. Whoever put this together did it in a thoughtless manner. Even if you are not very familiar with the works, it is patently obvious that a "study" for a painting is earlier than the painting itself. There are several instances where the studies are shown after the painting.
Put all studies for a particular work immediately before the work itself, for easy comparison. Don't separate them with a drawing of a machine that is unrelated.
Be aware that very very few of Leonardos paintings are reliably dated. This means that the studies are not dated either, unless they happen…

Include a genre tab
I love your site -- however, it would be extremely helpful if there was a "Genre" tab or something along those lines to help with the search. I wanted to search "byzantine" but the search came up only with artists and artworks -- both of which were not helpful to my ongoing search of good information and pictures of byzantine mosaics.

GoogleMap Location
I would love to see the current location (museum, gallery, etc) of the original painting on a GoogleMap. It would also be really cool to see where the painting was actually created by the artist.

I haven't found Hungarian painters in your database.
I suggest:
Philip De Laszlo (very famous painter)
Adolf Hirèmy-Hirsch symbolism
Victor Vasarely (founder of the pop-art)
Mihaly Zichy realism
Gyula Benczur realism
Mihaly Munkacsy (realism - see for example the passion triology)
CSONTVÁRY KOSZTKA, Tivadar (surrealism)
Vilmos Aba-Novák
Pal Szinyei Merse impressionismand so many more

tool tip info
since the titles of the works (or detail) are mentioned below the thumbnails in the 'chronology' strip, perhaps it will be appropriate and helpful if the tool-tip that appears on hovering over a thumbnail gives more information like date and series (or style/ genre) instead of repeating the title
