Reginald Taylor and Lord Fletcher Essay Prize

Abstract

The Reginald Taylor Essay Prize was first awarded in 1934 for the best unpublished essay submitted on any subject of art-historical, archaeological or antiquarian interest within the period from the Roman era to AD 1830, whenever such an essay was adjudged of sufficient merit. With the aid of a bequest from the late Lord Fletcher, the prize was re-established in 1996 as the Reginald Taylor and Lord Fletcher Essay Prize with a bronze medal, and now carries a prize of £500. Details of the competition, which is not restricted to members of the Association, can be obtained from the Honorary Editor. The winning essay may be read at a meeting of the Association and will be considered for publication in the Journal at the discretion of the Editorial Committee. The competition is held once every two years.
