Observant Reform and Dominican Church Interiors in Italy (15th-16th Centuries)

Haude Morvan obtained a PhD in the History of Medieval Art from the universities of Paris-Sorbonne and Roma La Sapienza in 2013. Her thesis was published in 2021 under the title <i>“Sous les pas des frères”. Les sépultures de papes et de cardinaux chez les Mendiants au XIIIe siècle</i> (Publications de l’École française de Rome). She was a research fellow at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa (2011-14) and at the École Française in Rome (2014-16). Since 2016, she is an Associate Professor (maître de conférences) in the History of Medieval Art at the Université Bordeaux-Montaigne. Her research interests center on the tombs monuments of the late Middle Ages, the Mendicant orders, the iconography of funerals, the changes in church interiors between the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period, and antiquarianism. She has led three collective research programs: “Observer l’Observance” (2017-21), “Medieval Art Across Time” (2019-22) and “Dans l’œil des antiquaires” (since 2020). In 2022, the book <i>Spaces for Friars and Nuns: Mendicant Choirs and Church Interiors in Medieval and Early Modern Europe</i> and a thematic issue of the <i>Mélanges de la Casa de Velázquez</i> untitled <i>L’ordre dominicain dans la péninsule ibérique: nouvelles perspectives de recherche en histoire de l’art (XIIIe-XVIe siècle)</i> were published under her direction.
