Dear Colleagues,

The Umbra Institute in Perugia, Italy, a study abroad program for
American college students, is seeking for this next semester a
professor to teach two sections of Italian Renaissance Art History.

The Umbra Institute is located in the heart of Perugia's historic
center, and enrolls students from across the United States for the
semester or academic year. More information about Umbra can be found
on the web site, www.umbra-institute.com

These two sections will enroll ca. 25-30 students each, and the
material covered usually ranges from Cimabue to Raphael. The most
recent textbooks used include the Frederick Hartt survey and Paoletti
and Radke. Included in the semester would be an overnight trip to
Florence for each section, and any relevant sites here in Perugia,
such as the Galleria Nazionale and Perugino's Collegio del Cambio.
On-site visits can be designed according to the professor's wishes.

A PhD in Art History is preferred, with experience teaching American
college undergraduates.
