Every year one Rome Fellowship is offered to allow an individual the unique opportunity to undertake three months of dedicated research and work on a visually focused topic relating to cultural contact, exchange and influence between Britain (including its historical Empire and Commonwealth) and Italy, whilst being based at the British School at Rome (BSR).
The award is open to scholars, researchers, curators and other galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAM) professionals, from immediately post-doctoral to those internationally recognised in their field of expertise. Whatever their background and current position, all applicants are expected to demonstrate a readiness to engage with Rome's art and archive collections, the BSR's own collections and/or the city as an architectural and cultural artefact.
For applicants employed by an organisation, institution or university there will also be an honorarium of £3,000 and up to £8,000 towards replacement staff costs, if required.
For independent scholars there will be an honorarium of £7,000.
