URI https://nfdi4culture.de/ontology#Item
Description

item is a subclass of \"schema:CreativeWork\", indicating that all items inherently fall under the umbrella of creative works. However, for more refined classification, one can employ more specific subclasses of \"schema:CreativeWork,\" such as \"schema:VisualArtwork,\" \"schema:Photograph,\" or \"schema:MusicComposition,\" to better define the RDF type of an item and achieve a more granular level of categorization.
