Peter Kidd's statements: Fact Checker

Image
Between 2022 and 2023, Peter Kidd , a blogger with ties to auction houses and medieval manuscript traders , launched a social media campaign against the integrity of a scholarly research center ( RECEPTIO ), its director ( Prof. Carla Rossi ), and members. Kidd’s activities seemed retaliatory, following the director’s report to authorities about illegal activities conducted by art traders . Over the course of 2023, Kidd attempted to marshal his contacts to damage the center’s credibility. However, his campaign ultimately backfired, as it drew attention to his own connections with unethical manuscript traders and his questionable conduct.  Our blog , that owes its name to the alleged scandal surrounding the research center, but which has no connection to it, aims to provide a clear and respectful narrative of these events , upholding a standard of ethical journalism. It examines the difficulties of safeguarding cultural heritage and academic integrity amidst the destructive practic...

According to P. Kidd Prof. C. Rossi is not an art historian: HOAX

Image
  According to Peter Kidd [ Source https://mssprovenance.blogspot.com/2022/12/ ], Prof. Carla Rossi is not an art historian: Kidd wrote: Rossi may have identified the "the manuscript's addressee" correctly: I do not know, because I have not checked the evidence. I can confidently say, however, that she has not identified the " atelier where the codex was produced ": she is not an art historian, and the politest way I can describe her attempt at stylistic analysis is "naive". This is yet another falsehood written by the art dealer consultant, in an attempt to discredit the scholar's work. Contrary to Mr. Kidd's claims, not only is she an art historian with various publications in this field, but she is currently teaching History of the Art of illumination at the University of Salento.  We have obtained a copy of the Professor's University degree certificate (we are obscuring her date of birth and the grades, even though the former is known a...

Institutional complicity: internal mailing lists used to spread defamatory content

Image
 ðŸ“Œ One of the most disturbing aspects of the ReceptioGate affair was the misuse of internal academic resources to disseminate defamatory material. In early 2023, emails containing false and harmful statements about Prof. Carla Rossi were sent out from the mailing list of the Società Internazionale di Storia della Miniatura . These emails, sent to dozens of members and colleagues, used the official database of the Society’s members —without consent, and reportedly without the knowledge of the Society’s president. The content included insinuations based on blog posts, unverified accusations, and misleading claims about institutional affiliations. This raises serious concerns not only about academic integrity , but also about data protection and  violations of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) . 📖 These events are documented and analysed in depth in the book The ReceptioGate Affair by Jordi Puig: 👉 Google Books – Preview 🔖 #ReceptioGate #CarlaRossi...
