Anna Majeski received a Ph.D. in art history from the Institute of Fine Arts, NYU in January 2022, where she completed a doctoral dissertation on a remarkable series of astrological fresco cycles completed in Padua between 1300 and 1440. As Mellon Foundation Postdoctoral Natural History Exhibition Research Fellow at APS, Anna will be conducting curatorial research on an upcoming Museum exhibition considering eighteenth- and nineteenth-century natural history imagery. This research draws on her larger interest in the intersections of art and science, image and knowledge in the early modern world. Additionally, Anna will be researching her monograph, Ordering the Heavens, Picturing Knowledge: Art and Astrology in early Renaissance Padua.
