In Memoriam – Robert E. Hall

The Department of the History of Art is deeply saddened by the passing of Robert E. Hall. Bob and his late wife Nancy were lifelong supporters of the arts, including endowing curatorial fellowships for Johns Hopkins graduate and undergraduate students at the Walters Art Museum. Most recently, Bob provided funds to underwrite several public conferences hosted by the Department, including the upcoming “The Philosophical Image: Art, Wisdom, and the Care of the Self in the Premodern World.” Bob’s warm personality and generous spirit will be missed by us all.
