Description
The RSA‑Samuel H. Kress Research Fellowships in Renaissance Art History are short-term fellowships administered by the Renaissance Society of America (RSA), with support from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation. These fellowships provide funding for individual research projects and publications that advance scholarly knowledge in Renaissance art history, broadly defined as the period from 1300 to 1700. The awards are intended to foster high-quality, original scholarship among RSA members and may be used to support research travel, access to archives, digital resources, and publication-related costs. The program is part of RSA’s broader commitment to supporting Renaissance studies and especially encourages applications from contingent faculty, independent and self-employed scholars, graduate students, early career scholars, and those with fewer than two single-author books.
