Friederike Voigt is Principal Curator at National Museums Scotland, responsible for the collections from West, South and Southeast Asia. Much of her research centres around the museum’s acquisition history and its relation to the collecting interests of Scots in the 18th and 19th centuries. She is a specialist in 19th century Iranian material culture and has published widely on the role of ceramic crafts in facilitating social change during the Qajar period. Currently, she is working on a book that explores the Iranian collection at National Museums Scotland with a focus on individual and collective ideas of home and how they are expressed in objects of art, fashion and material culture.
