The Otto Naumann/American Friends of the Mauritshuis Fellowship

This fellowship offers grants in the field of art history to support an academic project devoted to the study of Dutch and Flemish art from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries. Topics relevant to the history and collection of the Mauritshuis and travel to The Netherlands are preferred. Preference goes to subjects devoted to paintings and drawings, then sculpture, prints and applied arts. Applicants must hold a B.A. in art history and be working toward a Ph.D at an American or Canadian University. Grants range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on the financial requirements and merits of the project.

Applicants are invited to submit a letter with a detailed description of the project and two letters of recommendation before April 1, 2011 to americanfriends@mauritshuis.nl
