The Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte will award two James Loeb Fellowships for the Classical Tradition in Art and Architecture.

The fellowship commemorates James Loeb (1867 New York – 1933 Munich), graduate of Harvard University, initiator of the Loeb Classical Library project and art collector. The fellowship is intended to support research that reflects Loeb’s central interests.

The fellowship is intended for doctoral students and postdoctoral scholars who have graduated within the last five years and who are working on a project related to the classical tradition in art and architecture, from the Middle Ages to the present.

Fellows are expected to partake in the activities of the ZI and to present the fellowship project.

The fellowship lasts three months, starting either on June 1, 2020 or on September 1, 2020.
