There are lots of others - but it's fairly random

I've downloaded maybe 20+ hi-res Walker Evans over the years (look nice on
the wall...), some Dorothea Lange etc

It's not easy to find which are which.

You can get into the root files by working back along the url from one of
the hi-res tifs - it's broken down into sections. Then you can see where the
hi-res ones are. But you can't tell what the actual image is...  so you have
to keep clicking on one of the accompanying lo-res jpgs with the same
accession number to figure it out.
