Hi Melissa
Digital.Bodleian may provide an example of a collection of digitised images that are described with Dublin Core metadata.
http://digital.bodleian.ox.ac.uk
Digital.Bodleian is a portal to the Bodleian Libraries' collections with images described in an IIIF manifest that includes Dublin Core. The metadata is displayed alongside the image, and there is a link to the raw metadata file via an IIIF logo.
