If that is the case, you could just use simple links and have a mention
about clicking on the artwork to read an in-depth description.

If these links are for screen-reader users, then why not hiding
them in visual browsers?
imho, many sighted users will be confused by your long description
pages, I believe most users won't understand their purpose.
Unless of course they do more than describing the image. For
example, in the case these images are not only described, but
*interpreted* (for example by the artist explaining his work,
symbolic, etc).
If it is the latter, then the description is for all users.
