About Openverse
Openverse is a creative commons search tool, it retrieves both audio and image results. All of which, can be sorted by the licence and attribution types: public domain, CC0, CC BY-SA, etc. This particular site also generates the attribution statement for you, how cool is that?

Attribution statement information
The attribution statement can be found in the ‘Credit the creator’ box on the right-hand side under the image.
You have 3 options for copying the attribution depending on where it needs to go. Currently, the options are: rich text, HTML and plain text. Generally, the rich text option will be your go-to.
