The American Friends of Chartres is accepting proposals for its annual research grant to support a research project requiring on-site research in Chartres that promises to advance knowledge and understanding of the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Chartres or its historical contexts in the medieval to early modern period. The American Friends of Chartres will provide a grant of $2,500.00 and will facilitate access to the cathedral, the Centre International du Vitrail, the municipal library, archival collections and related resources.
Topics in the fields of art history, history, or related disciplines might include architecture, stained glass, sculpture, urban development, economy, religious practices, manuscripts, or the cathedral treasury, among others.
Applicants may be graduate students, recent advanced degree recipients, or established scholars. Joint projects involving faculty and students are also welcome. Following the research project, the grantee is asked to provide a synopsis of the research and conclusions, which will be publicized through the cultural activities and website of the American Friends of Chartres.
Questions about the grant may be addressed to ChartresResearchGrant@gmail.com.
