Biography

Philip Attwood graduated in Ancient history and Archaeology from the University of Birmingham in 1975.[2]

He joined the British Museum in 1978, initially as an assistant in the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities, before becoming a curator in the Department of Coins and Medals the following year. In 2010, he was appointed chief curator of this department, succeeding Joe Cribb.[1][2][4][5]

As chief curator, Attwood was responsible for the department's acquisition program. During his tenure, notable acquisitions included a gold medal by British sculptor Alfred Gilbert (1854–1934) and a significant donation by his departmental colleague Marion Archibald, which was realized following her death in 2016.[4]

Attwood specialized in the Italian Renaissance medallic history of the 16th century and British medallic history of the 19th century.[2]

Since 2012, he has served as the president of the International Art Medal Federation (FIDEM) and was also named an honorary member of the Royal Numismatic Society of Belgium.[2]

Attwood retired on 1 May 2020, after 41 years of service at the Department of Coins and Medals of the British Museum.[4][5]
