The Dictionary of Art Historians (DAH) is an
art historians, art critics
and their dictionaries. The mission of the project is to provide free, reliable, English-language information on published art historians.
The DAH was started in 1986 as a notecard project indexing art historians by the editors Lee R. Sorensen and Monique Daniels.[1] In 2002, the project was migrated to the internet, and in 2010 it was adopted by the art history department of Duke University.[2] In 2017, the DAH was adopted by the Wired! Lab at Duke University[3] and a new version of the site was launched in 2018.[4] The project enjoys collaboration with the Journal of Art Historiography, which started in 2010.[5]
Starting as a database of art historians mentioned in major art historiographies, the site has grown through the comments and contributions of various authors specializing in national fields of art history.[6]
