    console.log(`"${artwork.title}" was created by ${artwork.principalMaker}`);
});

// Get artwork by artist (paged result: page 1, 25 results)

artApi.getByArtist('Rembrandt van Rijn', 1, 25).subscribe(pagedResult => {
    pagedResult.results.forEach((artwork) => { 
        console.log(artwork.title);
