Rosenberg has been a fellow at the Villa I Tatti – the Harvard Center for Renaissance Studies, and the American Academy in Rome. He is the editor of Art and Politics in Late Medieval and Early Renaissance Italy: 1250-1515 (1990); the author of The Este Monuments and Urban Development in Renaissance Ferrara (1997); and the editor of The Court Cities of Northern Italy (2010), a collection of six commissioned essays and introduction on art and patronage in nine North Italian cities during the long Renaissance.
