23 speakers from 8 different countries will come together in Celle to present individual aspects of portrait miniatures.
Similar to the 2022 symposium, the 2024 conference will cover a wide range of aspects:
- Individual miniaturists, specific workshop contexts, and places of production
- Use and functions of both court and private types and their protagonists
- Iconographic aspects in the context of representation or intimacy
- Evolution of techniques and materials
- Private and public collections
- Painting techniques
The symposium will be held to coincide with the opening of the eighth exhibition by the Tansey Miniatures Foundation and publication of the accompanying catalogue, "Miniatures from the Romantic Era in the Tansey Collection".
The conference will be held in English.
The presentations will subsequently be published in a richly illustrated book.
Participation in the conference is free of charge.
