Founded by Melinda McCurdy (The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens), Morna O'Neill (Wake Forest University), and Anne Nellis Richter (independent scholar and part-time faculty member at American University), Home Subjects is "a research working group which aims to illuminate the domestic display of art in Britain." This collection encompasses both fine art and decorative art and explores the private home as a set for artistic expression and curation during the eighteenth through twentieth centuries. The project is supported by Wake Forest University and the National Endowment for the Humanities. On this website, visitors are invited to learn more about the team's research through a series of short essays that are accompanied by illustrations and photographs. In one recent essay, art historian Rachel Rhine discusses the late eighteenth century murals of Thomas Stothard, which were displayed at the Burghley House in Peterborough, England. In another essay, Hyejin Lee, a doctoral candidate in art history at UNC-Chapel Hill investigates the popularity of "scent vessels" in eighteenth century France.
