public static HumanMadeObject Spring_In_Lot()
{
    var spring = new HumanMadeObject()
        .WithContext()
        .WithId("https://linked.art/example/object/spring/20")
        .WithLabel("Spring")
        .WithClassifiedAs(Aat.Painting, Aat.TypeOfWork);

    spring.IdentifiedBy = [new Name("Jeanne (Spring)").AsPrimaryName()];

    spring.MemberOf = [
        new Set()
            .WithId("https://linked.art/example/set/24477_16_objects")
            .WithLabel("Lot 16: Le Printemps")
    ];

    return spring;
}
  • Metatype classification The second argument classifies the first, not the object: WithClassifiedAs(Aat.Description, Aat.Statement) says this is a Description, and Description is a kind of Statement. The Plain C# form shows the nesting.
  • Role shortcuts AsPrimaryName, AsAccessionNumber and AsSystemAssignedNumber each add a single classification, with the AAT terms Primary Name, Accession Number and System Number.
