Research Profile

Rosenberg is an historian of Italian Renaissance Art.  His book, The Este Monuments and Urban Development in Renaissance Ferrara (CUP, 1997) dealt with the manner in which sculpture and urban design reflected the individual and collective interests of the rulers of  Renaissance Ferrara.  He is the editor of a collection of essays entitled The Court Cities of Northern Italy which will be published as part of Cambridge University Press’s Artistic Centers of Renaissance Italy in 2010.  In addition to working on the court of Ferrara, Rosenberg has also published more than two dozen articles on numismatic imagery, portraiture, and the art of Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Rembrandt.  He has been the recipient of an I Tatti NEH Fellowship to the Harvard Center for Renaissance Study in Florence (1985-86) and an NEH Postdoctoral Rome Prize Fellowship to the American Academy in Rome (2000-01). He is currently preparing a catalogue of the Feddersen Collection of Rembrandt etchings in the Snite Museum of Art.
