Federation in the #Wikimedia #Commons Query Service is impressively powerful: You can use the wealth of information contained in #Wikidata, combine it with structured metadata on Commons and retrieve media from Commons you'd hardly find otherwise.
For example:
- Find images for all monuments with a Bavarian monument authority ID in a certain administrative district (here Passau): https://w.wiki/9dba
- images of churches in Rome: https://w.wiki/9dbf
