Contributor Biographies
Contributors to this educational website include:
Originators
Dr. Rudolphi created this Omeka site for use in the many iterations his course on the same material has taken during his time as an adjunct professor. As an art historian, Dr. Rudolphi considers himself an iconologist and is interested in the relationship of image to text in Early Modern Italian art. Understanding why things appear in paintings as they do and teaching students the critical visual skills to begin researching and solving those puzzles is a great joy and intellectual challenge for him.
Dr. Henry Duvall Gregory V, aka Quint
Dr. Gregory is the Director of the Michelle Smith Collaboratory in the Department of Art History and Archaeology at the University of Maryland, College Park. He is not only responsible for providing the platform for these contributions, but also teaches students and professors how to use cutting-edge technology in their classrooms and scholarly research. He is a specialist in seventeenth-century Dutch art as well.
