Creating References for Images
Select from one of the following links for formatting and examples for each item type:
Refer to the core elements of MLA style to create your references:
- Author (or artist or creator).
- Title of source.
- Title of container,
- Other contributors,
- Version,
- Number,
- Publisher,
- Publication date,
- Location.
Remember, all nine of the core elements may not apply to the item you are referring to. Alternately, elements 3-9 may repeat if the source has more than one container. For example: a piece of art (source) that is housed in a gallery (first container) and has been photographed and printed in a book (second container). Only use those elements that apply to the work you are referencing.
