About
Bailey is a PhD Candidate specializing in late-medieval and early modern visual culture in the Holy Roman Empire. Her dissertation explores Stadtansichten, or city-views, produced in the late 15th and early 16th century on panel paintings and in print. Across the disciplines of cartographic studies and art history, Bailey analyzes how these city-views situate urban space and urban development within biblical, cosmlogical, and humanist histories of both Europe and the "New World."
Prior to coming to Michigan, Bailey received her BA summa cum laude in Art History from Southern Connecticut State University, and her Master of Arts from Yale with a certificate from the Institute for Sacred Music, Worship and the Arts. Bailey has also worked as a research assistant at Yale's Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscripts Library in the Manuscripts division, and as an editorial intern at the Yale University Art Gallery.
