Dr. van Dijk’s research interests center on the art of medieval Rome, the issues of continuity and transformation that characterize it, and artistic relations between Rome and Byzantium. While working on her doctoral dissertation, she lived in Rome for a year and half. Her articles have appeared in Art Bulletin and Dumbarton Oaks Papers; three others are forthcoming in volumes of essays entitled S. Maria Antiqua: 100 anni dopo lo scavo (Rome, 2004) and Image and Altar: Interrelationships (Copenhagen, 2004) and the journal Renaissance Studies (2005). She also presents her work regularly at conferences and symposia. Her current research project is a book on the Oratory of Pope John VII (705-707) in Old St. Peter’s and the transformations it underwent during the course of its nine-hundred-year history.
