Dissertators in Art History should consider applying for the SSRC’s international dissertation research fellowships:
http://programs.ssrc.org/idrf/
Though it is administered by the SSRC (Social Science Research Council), there is no intrinsic bias against the humanities. Humanities fields are fully eligible for this grant, which provides 9-12 months of funding for research abroad. Proposals should have the capacity to appeal to audiences across disciplines (i.e., not be narrowly of interest only to those in one’s field) and should clearly demonstrate their importance and the necessity of extended research abroad to the successful completion of the dissertation.
Even if you are not ready now, consider this grant program as a future possibility.
