Courtauld Books Online is a series of online, Open Access scholarly books published by The Courtauld Institute of Art. The series includes research publications that emerge from Courtauld Research Forum events and Courtauld research projects involving an array of outstanding scholars from art history, conservation, and curation across the world.
The series consists of volumes edited by leading scholars in the field and shaped by a rigorous editorial and peer-review process. It is Diamond Open Access, meaning that its publication is funded by the Courtauld and the volumes are freely available to read online and to download without charge.
The series has been developed in the context of The Courtauld’s emphasis on world-leading research that shapes collective understanding of the visual arts past and present and champions the importance to our society of cultural knowledge, understanding, and practice. We support research in art history, conservation, and curating that produces new knowledge and understanding, and new methods of analysis and interpretation, to shape and advance our respective disciplines, and to address intellectual, cultural and societal challenges.
