Rachel M. Carlisle is an art historian specialized in the art of northern Europe (c. 1400-1600). In Fall 2022, she joined the Department of Art, Art History and Design faculty at the University of Alabama in Huntsville as Lecturer in Art History. Rachel holds a PhD from Florida State University and a Master of Arts degree from the Courtauld Institute of Art. Her current research interests include transalpine exchanges, patronage and collecting practices, the reception of antiquity during the early modern period, and development of print technologies.

Her book Picturing German Antiquity in the Age of Print: Art, Archaeology, and the Style All’antica in Early Modern Augsburg (Amsterdam University Press) examines the central role of print to local antiquarian pursuits and generation of a style all’antica in early sixteenth-century Augsburg, Germany. A Lindsay Young Visiting Regional Faculty Fellowship at the Marco Institute for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, University of Tennessee, Knoxville; Fulbright Research Award; and Rolf und Ursula Schneider-Stiftung Doctoral Fellowship at the Herzog August Bibliothek supported her research for the manuscript. Publication subventions awarded by the Renaissance Society of America and New Foundation of Art History funded its publication.
