SUMMARY:Objects Up Close Virtual Series
DESCRIPTION:Folk Binding: The Joseph Stidham Diary \nA ropemaker and wire weaver from Wilmington\, Delaware\, Joseph H. Stidham (1788–1870) was also an active diarist who bound his own notebooks using whatever materials he had at hand. From offcuts of leather pants to scraps of cloth and recycled paper\, Stidham made utilitarian and charming covers for his diaries. The pages within are often held together with colored thread\, stick pins\, and wax. This presentation by Luke K. Kelly\, Fellow\, Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation\, will examine the conservation treatment of one of Stidham’s journals from the collection and discuss the importance of preserving idiosyncratic “folk bindings” and their value as artifacts. Registration required. Free. \nRegister now. \nJoin us for an additional program on May 5.

SUMMARY:Research at Winterthur Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Plantation Goods: A Material History of American Slavery \nThe industrializing North and the agricultural South—that’s how we have been taught to think about the United States in the early nineteenth century. But in doing so\, we overlook the economic ties that held the nation together before the Civil War. We miss slavery’s long reach into small New England communities\, just as we fail to see the role of Northern manufacturing in shaping the terrain of human bondage in the South. Using plantation goods—the shirts\, hats\, hoes\, shovels\, shoes\, axes\, and whips made in the North for use in the South—historian Seth Rockman locates the biggest stories in American history in the everyday objects that stitched together the lives and livelihoods of Americans—white and Black\, male and female\, enslaved and free—across an expanding nation. Rockman is the George L. Littlefield Professor of American History\, Director of Undergraduate Studies\, Brown University. \nThe Research at Winterthur series\, presented by the Winterthur Library and the Research Fellowship Program\, showcases new projects and publications that tap into our rich collections and resources\, unveiling innovative perspectives for exploring the fascinating stories that objects can tell about people and our shared past. Registration required. Included with admission. Members free. \nRegister now. \nJoin us for additional talks in the series on April 19\, May 1\, and May 8.

SUMMARY:Research at Winterthur Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:The American Revolution and the Fate of the World \nWhen we think of the American Revolution\, we often picture thirteen colonies squaring off against the British Crown in a spirited bid for independence. But this version of the story is only half the truth—and perhaps not even the most interesting half. In this riveting program\, historian and author Richard Bell invites audiences to rediscover the Revolution as a world war that unleashed chaos\, opportunity\, and transformation across six continents. From the sugar fields of the Caribbean to the court of the King of Mysore\, from refugee camps on the Canadian frontier to political uprisings in Sierra Leone and Peru\, the war that gave birth to the United States was never simply America’s own. It was a seismic global event that redrew maps\, toppled hierarchies\, catalyzed migration\, and accelerated new movements for liberty—and for empire. Bell is associate professor of history\, University of Maryland\, College Park. \nThe Research at Winterthur series\, presented by the Winterthur Library and the Research Fellowship Program\, showcases new projects and publications that tap into our rich collections and resources\, unveiling innovative perspectives for exploring the fascinating stories that objects can tell about people and our shared past. Registration required. Included with admission. Members free. \nRegister now. \nJoin us for additional talks in the series on May 1\, and May 8.

SUMMARY:Research at Winterthur Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:A Sensible and Human Bohemia: The Utopian Moment in American Arts and Crafts\, 1895–1903 \nAt the turn of the 19th century across America\, intentional communities of artists in Rose Valley\, Byrdcliffe\, and Roycroft were havens for handcraft\, worker dignity\, and the promotion of beautiful art for the masses\, and were works of art in themselves—total sensory installations of the Arts and Crafts Movement—that stood as model community-workshops\, suggesting that there could be an alternative to brutal industrialization. The talk is presented by Thomas A. Guiler\, Director of Museum Affairs\, Oneida Community House. \nThe Research at Winterthur series\, presented by the Winterthur Library and the Research Fellowship Program\, showcases new projects and publications that tap into our rich collections and resources\, unveiling innovative perspectives for exploring the fascinating stories that objects can tell about people and our shared past.

SUMMARY:Objects Up Close Virtual Series
DESCRIPTION:Disability in Late 18th-Century London \nA mezzotint in Winterthur’s collection called Mirth and Friendship shows a perfectly normal scene in mid-18th-century London—a group of men drinking in a tavern. Perfectly normal\, that is\, except that one of the men is seven and a half feet tall. His name was Edward Bamford\, and he was a hatter and family man who became a minor celebrity after his death in 1768. Join Esme Krohn\, Fellow\, Winterthur Program in American Material Culture as she explores how this print shows the complicated and often contradictory realities of being disabled in 18th-century England.

SUMMARY:Research at Winterthur Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Portraying the English Country House: Travel and Transmission across the Atlantic \nJoin Kedra Kearis\, associate curator\, art and visual culture\, for an insider’s look at the legendary Attingham Summer School\, a 16-day immersion in the art\, architecture\, and landscapes of England’s great country estates. In the summer of 2025\, Dr. Kearis explored 26 historic houses and gardens—from the dramatic Arundel Castle and the opulent Chatsworth to the storied halls of Boughton House\, Kedleston Hall\, Hardwick Hall\, and Petworth House. \nThis talk invites you behind the scenes of the Attingham experience\, where private tours\, expert lectures\, and hands-on workshops bring centuries of design and collecting to life. Dr. Kearis will share how these encounters are shaping her curatorial vision at Winterthur and will highlight surprising connections between British and American art: the impact of the European Grand Tour\, the role of women as patrons and collectors\, and the power of prints and publications to carry the style of the English country house across the Atlantic. \nThe Research at Winterthur series\, presented by the Winterthur Library and the Research Fellowship Program\, showcases new projects and publications that tap into our rich collections and resources\, unveiling innovative perspectives for exploring the fascinating stories that objects can tell about people and our shared past.
