Searching for biblical art in Logos is so disappointing :(

Searching for art having to do with the story of Moses and the Burning Bush, from Exodus 3. What I get is this.

This is more along the lines of what I wish I would get. It took me 2 hours to scour the web and find all of these. I want to be able to do it with Logos in seconds.

Agreed. While I have religious art collections in my library, the relevant resources seldom come up in image searches.

I get a better set of results if I search for "burning bush" and constrain the media type to Art Images

Well, yes, constraining the media type to Art Images (which I'd forgotten we can do) does seem to weed out most of the clipart, but not all. And there's still a paucity of art images tagged with Scripture which is too bad. And this one is mistagged.

If I search for "burning bush" instead I do get a few more, but huh? Bread tagged with "burning bush"?

And there's still so little real art. I have the Verbum Treasury of Sacred Art and Images of the Saints, and a handful of other things that I've tagged GoodArt. But there just isn't enough!

There are hundreds of great painters who painted sacred art. I so wish I could use the power of Logos to get at it all with useful tags (Scripture references as well as topics). Alas, probably not in this life...
