Sheri Shaneyfelt (Centre College, B.S.; Vanderbilt University, M.A.; Indiana University at Bloomington, Ph.D.) specializes in Italian Renaissance Art; she also teaches courses in Baroque Art at Vanderbilt. Prior to Vanderbilt, she taught at the Umbra Institute in Perugia, Italy. Her research has been published recently in the Burlington Magazine and in Studying and Conserving Paintings, a joint publication of the Kress Foundation and the Institute for Fine Arts Conservation Center at NYU. An article forthcoming in Zeitschrift für Kunstgeschichte establishes the graphic style of the painter Giannicola di Paolo, an important associate of Pietro Perugino. Dr. Shaneyfelt’s current studies continue her focus on Renaissance Umbria, and the artistic culture of Perugia circa 1490. |
