CERL organised a workshop on ‘Historical Provenance Research: Material Evidence, Documentary Evidence, and Digital Humanities’ (presenters included M. van Delft, C. Dondi, M. Hulvey, M. Lefferts, P. Cullhed).

It focused on today’s integrated approaches to provenance research. Another stream focused on other European projects on provenance research integration, as well as on the use of documentary evidence to complement evidence-based historical research. Finally, there was a discussion on digital repositories for provenance images.
