She is a past president and active participant in Historians of Netherlandish Art ( www.hnanews.org ). Stephanie teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on Dutch and Flemish art of the early modern period, feminism and art history, the history of printmaking, and other topics. Her research and publications explore the art of Rembrandt van Rijn, Anthony van Dyck and related artists, with particular interests in the cultural practice of portraiture, the representation of the passions, the making and collecting of prints, and the intersection of art, religion, and literature in the early modern world.
Jacquelyn N. Coutré joined the Agnes Etherington Art Centre as Bader Curator and Researcher of European Art in 2015. She received her MA and PhD from the Institute of Fine Arts of New York University and her BA from Indiana University.
