Hello,

We are trying to determine the best way to enter reproductions into our
PastPerfect database.  A hypothetical example would be a lithograph by Joe
Smith of a painting by van Gogh or a painting by Sally May that is a copy of
a van Gogh.

We have consulted the Getty web site but have not determined the best way to
transfer recommendations to PastPerfect. The revised Chenall nomenclature
does not address reproductions.

Questions:
Where should we note that the item is a reproduction? Object Name, Other
Name, Description, Custom Field..
How should we handle the layered artists? Using the example above place the
following in the artist field [Smith, Joe (orig. van Gogh)]
