Editing Iconclass (section)

===The iconclass concept as a subject===
Everyone with an account can add to the iconclass hierarchy. Some of these hierarchies are quite detailed, such as for stories of the Old Testament that were popular in the arts during the 17th-century. The problems of using iconclass codes for concepts is that they are a bit too precise. In the previous search example for 71H713 in the RKDimages database, the painting record for [[Bathsheba at Her Bath (Rembrandt)|Rembrandt's Bathsheba in the Louvre]] was excluded from the search, because the iconclass code assigned to that painting in the RKDimages database is not 71H713, but 71H7131, and searching for that code will result in other images to be returned.<ref>[https://rkd.nl/en/explore/images#filters%5Biconclass_code%5D=71H7131  All available records for iconclass code "71H7131"] in RKDimages</ref>
