andsoon93 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Hi all!I'm interested in pursuing a PhD with a focus on Northern European art, most likely Seventeenth-Century Dutch art (paintings/print culture both appeal to me). It is my understanding that the generation of great scholars in the field has largely retired or died at this point, but I know there must be good professors out there somewhere! I'm already familiar with Adams at UCSB and Brusati at UMich, but I'm trying to develop a more substantial range of schools to consider applying to. I am definitely intrigued by international programs as well. Thanks!
Eggleston Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Jeffrey Muller at Brown is an option and has been taking more students lately.
rbakshi Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Ethan Matt Kavaler at the University of Toronto specializes in Northern Renaissance Art. He currently has one student, but I'm not sure if he's taking more.
knp Posted August 25, 2015 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) I know almost nothing about his scholarship, but I met Joseph Koerner (Harvard) once at a talk, and he was just the nicest person. It's not often that I remember an academic for the loveliness of their personality, but he's one of those.Edit: his biography seems like he might have shifted his focus to (fin-de-siècle?) Vienna now, but I saw him talk about seventeenth-century Dutch painting and architecture. Edited August 25, 2015 by knp
