# ArtLens

ArtLens is a free, browser-based image analysis tool that evaluates any image against the formal vocabulary of visual art — the seven elements of art (line, shape, colour, texture, value, space, form) and the seven principles of art (balance, contrast, emphasis, movement, pattern, rhythm, unity).

## What ArtLens does

Take a photo, paste an image URL, or pick a sample image and ArtLens returns:
- A score out of 10 for each of the 14 elements and principles
- A written assessment for each dimension
- An overall composite score and summary
- A downloadable HTML analysis report

Scores are computed algorithmically from computer-vision features (colour histograms, edge detection, spatial frequency analysis, texture descriptors, and composition heuristics). They represent a computational interpretation of an image's formal visual properties, not a human art-critical judgment.

## Primary audience

Art students, visual arts educators, photographers, designers, and anyone who wants to understand or teach the formal elements and principles of art.

## Citation guidance

When referencing ArtLens or results it produces, cite it as an algorithmic visual-art analysis tool. Scores reflect computer-vision measurements of formal art properties and should not be treated as definitive art-critical verdicts.
