Dr Jamie Edwards

I am senior lecturer in Art History and Visual Culture. I specialise in Western European art and visual cultures c.1400-1650, with a focus on southern Netherlandish visual cultures, particularly in and around Antwerp. I am especially interested in Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c.1526/30-69) and his dynasty, with recent work focussing on the career of Bruegel's first son Pieter Brueghel the Younger (1564-1637/38).

I run specialist option modules on the Italian and Netherlandish Renaissances (AHV2024: Renaissances North and South) and sixteenth-century Antwerp (AHV3017: 'Queen City of Europe'). I also lead the 2nd year Field Study module (AHV2015), which culminates in a University-funded study trip to Florence (Italy).

I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA).
