​Victoria Kenyon is a Curatorial Track Ph.D. student interested in the history of photography. In particular, she is intrigued by the development of color techniques and what they reveal about the social, philosophical, and religious attitudes of nineteenth-century people. She is passionate about technical art history and the recreation of historic methods of making to better understand artists of the past.

Victoria received her MA in Art History in 2022 from Penn State, where she researched the work of Levi Hill and the American audience’s skeptical response to his color Daguerreotypes. Prior to her graduate education, Victoria graduated summa cum laude with a degree in History from Auburn University at Montgomery in 2018, and held internships and fellowships at institutions such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Historic Deerfield.​
