Get art history flashcards from your own lecture slides
Upload the slides, notes or photos your instructor used and get flashcards for artists, dates, movements and key visual features, with spaced repetition built in.
Why generate your own art history flashcards
Art history exams ask you to recognize a work, name its movement and explain its key features from memory. The fastest way to drill that is to build art history flashcards from the slides your instructor actually showed.
- Upload lecture PDFs, PPTX decks or photographed handouts
- Cards for artists, dates, movements and key visual features
- Spaced repetition schedules reviews around what you forget
- Export to Anki or CSV on Plus, study in the browser on Free
Built from your own material
Upload PDFs, PPTX decks, notes or photos of printed slides. The cards follow the works your instructor actually covered.
Spaced repetition
Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know fade into longer intervals, so review time goes to what you forget.
Export when you need it
Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for review on other apps.
How it works
Upload your slides or notes
Add a PDF, PPTX, DOCX, text file or photo of a page. Text recognition reads images as well.
Review the generated cards
Check that each card names the right artist, date and movement, and edit anything that doesn't match your course.
Study on a spaced schedule
Work through the deck daily and let the app decide which cards need another pass before the exam.
Ready-made decks are often written for a general audience. They may skip the works on your syllabus or use different images than the ones on your exam, so you spend time learning material you will not be tested on.
DeckOwl reads your uploaded slides and notes, then writes question-and-answer cards and schedules them with spaced repetition, so each study session targets the works you have not yet memorized.

Frequently asked questions
How many art history flashcards should I make for a midterm?
Start with one card per work or movement your instructor emphasized, then add cards for the features that set each one apart. Adjust the deck after your first few review sessions based on which cards you miss.
What is the best way to memorize artworks and their dates?
Pair each image with its date, artist and one visual clue, such as a dominant color or compositional device. Review the cards daily so the hard ones come back more often than the ones you already know.
Can I export art history flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month and includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, while the free plan lets you study in the browser with three generations per month.
Does it work with photos of slides?
Yes, photos of pages are read with text recognition, so a picture of a slide or printed handout can become flashcards. No credit card is needed to start, and students with a school email get 40% off.
