Jan Brueghel wiki

Posted by Elizabeth Honig on August 8, 2014

The research website janbrueghel.net serves three distinct functions. First, it is a gathering place for information about the Baroque painter Jan Brueghel the Elder. Second, it is a place where a range of people with an interest in this artist, from university-based scholars to museum curators to art dealers and also the owners of paintings, can pool their ideas and untangle the problems raised by Brueghel’s works. Finally, it is a site where new knowledge about the artist can be generated, particularly by studying his workshop practice using the Image Investigation Tool.

BRANCH: Britain, Representation and Nineteenth-Century History

Posted by Dino Felluga on August 29, 2011

To date, there is no open-access central resource for the study of 19th-century history and culture. Each such anthology is proprietary, often with password-protected web sites that accompany the hard-copy books. What is required is a website that provides this information in a free, expansive, searchable, reliable, peer-reviewed, easy-to-use format. I am creating a central resource for high school and university teachers seeking a comprehensive overview of the period 1789-1910.
