I don't think you can do this in a single query. You want to do one
query to get the titles of all the images in the category, and then do a
second query to get all the thumbnail data for those titles.

Sorry, my question might not have been clear.
When the page
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Coins_in_the_Walters_Art_Museum
is opened, You get a gallery of 13 thumbnails with titles and links. When I
looked at the source I see 13 list items. the first list item snippet is
given below. I am trying to get all 13 list items info with a single query.
My query
http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?format=xml&action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Category:Coins_in_the_Walters_Art_Museum
only gives me 13 file names. I would like to get the thumbnail url and title
names of all 13 coins as displayed in the gallery (and in the source li
item) in 1 query.
Thanks.
The list item snippet for first picture in the gallery.
