The Research Associate will support an initiative to investigate the provenance of objects associated with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and its successor states.  

Under the guidance of the Executive Director of Provenance Research and Senior Research Associate, the Research Associate will review all collecting areas to identify relevant objects, and will locate any existing provenance documentation in the museum’s database, curatorial files, and archival records. 

As part of the cataloguing process, the Research Associate will identify individual objects or groups of objects for further examination and will carry out targeted in-depth provenance research into these objects using relevant archival records in both North America and Europe.
