British Art Studies is an online, open access art history journal published by the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art and the Yale Center for British Art. First released in August 2015, British Art Studies features Articles, Editorials, Conversation Pieces (a feature where the journal invites multiple scholars to respond to a single question or idea), and Look First (a feature that takes advantage of the digital nature of British Art Studies by inviting readers to closely examine a film or piece of art). The publication demonstrates the advantages of the digital form for art journals, at it allows readers to view sketches, paintings, sculptures, and other art in close detail while they read accompanying analyses. For example, an article about John Singer Sargent's Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose allows readers to view not only close-ups of the painting, but also a number of related images, including an X-radiograph of an unrelated portrait that reveals new insights about Sargent's artistic technique.
