Accessibility statement
Aim
This website should work for every visitor, whether they use a mouse, a keyboard, touch or a screen reader. It follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.
What the website offers
- Every image has a description in German and English.
- All features, including full screen, the magnifier and the room view, work with the keyboard.
- A visible focus ring shows where you are, and a link at the top of each page jumps straight to the content.
- Motion is switched off when your system asks for reduced motion.
- Light and dark colour schemes with sufficient contrast, and text can be enlarged to 200 per cent.
- Forms report errors as text next to each field and list them, with links to the fields, at the top of the form.
How it was tested
On each release, axe checks every page type in both languages and both colour schemes, and Lighthouse checks five selected pages. Automated browser tests also check keyboard operation, for example in the language menu, search, image view, magnifier, wall and room view.
Known limitations
Words can describe a painting only approximately. The image descriptions name colours, shapes and composition, but they cannot replace seeing the original.
The room view with your own photo is a visual preview. The size of each work is therefore always given as text beside it.
