David Rosand (CC'59, GSAS'65), Meyer Schapiro Professor of Art History Emeritus, joined the art history faculty in 1964, having earned both his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Columbia University. He served twice as the chairman of the Department of Art History and Archaeology, was a devoted teacher and director of Art Humanities, and led the Columbia Society of Fellows in the Humanities. While David formally retired in 2010, he continued to offer seminars each spring until 2013, his final semester of teaching.
For more than five decades, David's teaching and groundbreaking research on Titian, Venetian woodcuts, drawings, and other aspects of Venetian Renaissance culture, have profoundly shaped and inspired countless students and faculty colleagues on campus and around the world. In May 2014, Columbia University recognized his many contributions to the field of art history and to the life of the university by conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Letters, honoris causa.
Rosand passed away on August 8 2014.
