Congratulations to Frances Andrews on being awarded an MBE for services to Higher Education in the King’s Birthday Honours List!

Frances co-edits our series "The Medieval Mediterranean" where she brings her expertise and passion for medieval studies to the fore, “[…] researching a world so very unlike our own that we are encouraged to understand, perhaps to empathise with, those who are different to ourselves and, on reflection, to rethink who we ourselves are in new and more diverse ways.”

We are proud and grateful to work with you, Frances – kudos and well deserved!

"Plaster Casts in the Life and Art of Seventeenth-Century Dutch Painters" by Isabella Lores-Chavez (Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco) presents the first comprehensive account of the impact of plaster casts on the artistic practice, intellectual endeavors, and social status of seventeenth-century Dutch painters. Marginalized in the history of Dutch art, plaster casts lie at the center of this study’s novel interpretations of paintings and drawings.
