This article is an analysis of research practices carried out in the field of Digital Art History through comparative approaches with the methods of both Art Historiography and Social Sciences. The aim is to show that the in literature highlighted association of Digital Art History with Social and Data Sciences due to the application of empirical methods and data-driven research, which would mark the beginning of a new paradigm in Art Historiography, is questionable, because the methods followed are a continuation of the way art historians have been recording the development of art since antiquity. It is argued that Digital Art History is a trend in the postmodern paradigm, with a central focus on the use of digital technology to redefine the methods of both modern and postmodern paradigms.
