BaZZa and all.

Please be aware that many of these images are freely available from many museum sites as they are mostly in the public domain - you need not pay alamy for images that are in the public domain.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art  https://www.metmuseum.org/search-results#!/search?q=tsuba  [Some images are not in the public domain so you should check before use, either the images will have [OA] Public Domain  or a disclaimer " Due to rights restrictions, this image cannot be enlarged, viewed at full screen, or downloaded."] This is not the most user friendly on-line museum (Which is why I did the two volume book!)

The Walters Museum https://picryl.com/topics/tsuba+in+the+walters+art+museum?page=1  [you may need to search the museum site itself for extra information and more views]

and others like the Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design  https://risdmuseum.org/art-design/collection?search_api_fulltext=Tsuba&field_public_domain=1&has_images=1&field_type=All  - it is a little obscure and the images are poor.
