Richard Green

Richard Green serves as an Honorary Visiting Fellow in the Department of History of Art at the University of York, leveraging his extensive background as a curator and art historian specializing in British art from c. 1750 to c. 1850.

His academic credentials include:

• DipAD
• MA from the Courtauld Institute, London

Green's research concentrates on British paintings, watercolours, and drawings of the long 19th century, with significant contributions to the study of Victorian oil sketches and the history of art collecting. His work bridges academic scholarship and curatorial practice, exemplified by ongoing projects at Brodsworth Hall and analyses of artists like William Etty and Paul Sandby.

His recent publications demonstrate deep engagement with British art historiography, particularly through biographical studies of art world figures and technical analyses of artistic lineages. This scholarship consistently connects historical contexts with material culture.

Green's professional recognition includes:

• Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (FSA)
• Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA)
• Elected member of the International Association of Art Critics (AICA)

He actively contributes to the art community through leadership roles including Chairman of the York Georgian Society (2007-2015), committee membership at the Sheldon Memorial Trust, and serving as Yorkshire and Humber Group Leader for Art Detective.
