Building on the University of Oxford’s resources for the advanced study of art history and North American history, politics, literature, and culture, the Terra Foundation Visiting Professors of American Art undertake research in the history of American art, give the annual Terra Lectures at Oxford, organize a study day, and teach two courses. During the Visiting Professorship, they are full members of Oxford’s Department of History of Art and also hold a Visiting Fellowship at Worcester College.
