We are developing a database comprised of text and images.  We are using
BASISPLUS a document database management system which handles both text
and multimedia.  The advantage of using this kind of software is that
database fields can be constructed so that  text of various kinds, i.e.
titles, owners, descriptions etc. can accompany each picture. Indexes for
each field are created and can be searched.  This is not an inexpensive
system but it is useful.  The software is made by information dimensions
which is owned by oclc.  -- Hope this helps
