Internship in the conservation of easel paintings and country house
    collection care
Lamport Hall Trust / Hamilton Kerr Institute

Lamport Hall Trust and the Hamilton Kerr Institute
<URL:http://www-hki.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/> offer a twelve-month
internship for a recently qualified conservator of paintings.  It is
expected that the starting date will be September 2007.  The first
three months of the internship will normally be spent at the
Hamilton Kerr Institute and the remainder at Lamport Hall.  The
intern will be contracted to work for the Director of the Lamport
Hall Trust and will carry out conservation treatments on the Hall's
collection of paintings under the supervision of the Hamilton Kerr
Institute.  There is a studio at the Hall, although the intern will
be able to use the facilities of the Hamilton Kerr Institute when
necessary.  The internship will be an opportunity to learn about the
day-to-day care of a country house paintings collection and its
particular conservation problems and priorities.

The internship will be funded by Lamport Hall and the Hamilton Kerr
Institute.  In addition, self-contained accommodation will be
provided whilst at Lamport Hall.

Applications including the addresses of two referees and requests
for further details should be e-mailed or addressed to:
