He is using Named-Entity Recognition to partially automate the data collection process, working from a collection of ~10,000 transcriptions, excerpts and summaries of archival documents that reflect the activities of painters, sculptors and other artisans in Seville from 1400-1850. They represent an enormous, if fragmentary, body of the evidence of these actors in the market.
His interests include art markets, the transcontinental trade in paintings in the Early Modern Period, Early Modern Spain and Latin America, data-driven art-historical research and the digital humanities.
