1. FOCUS AND SCOPE

Archivo de Arte Valenciano is a scientific journal founded in 1915 focused on Cultural Heritage published in paper and electronic formats and is issued annually by the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia. Its objective is to publish unpublished texts from research by scholars interested in the Fine Arts, in its broadest sense, to disseminate the heritage and enrich the scientific background in the various areas of the Academy. It is mainly addressed to the scientific and university community at a national and international level and to art professionals.

 

2. SECTIONS

Archivo de Arte Valenciano publishes research papers grouped into four sections:

Historical.
Contemporary.
In Extenso deals with a specific historical or contemporary subject and may incorporate one or several papers on the same subject. This section is optional.
Reviews of books and other editions, which shall deal with the same subjects that have been published during the current year and have been admitted to the Institution. The Editorial Board will supervise book reviews.

 

3. PEER REVIEW

Archivo de Arte Valenciano will acknowledge receipt of the originals sent by the authors.

According to the peer review and double-blind system, the journal is governed by a system of anonymous external evaluation of articles, in which two external reviewers will participate. In the event that a third party is needed, it will be called upon. The name of the external evaluators will be confidential and chosen by the journal’s Editorial Board.

In order to maintain the anonymity of the papers for blind peer review, the name(s) of the author(s) should not appear on the papers. For proper identification, the papers should be accompanied by a separate file containing the author’s name, place of work or profession and e-mail address. In addition, the same document shall state the knowledge and acceptance of the journal’s rules and the commitment that the article is unpublished and has not been simultaneously sent to other publications. It will also be stated that the relevant authorization has been granted for the reproduction of the images inserted in the text and that the publication entails the assignment of copyright in favour of the Academy for electronic reproduction.

 

4. ASSESSMENT STANDARDS

Texts must be unpublished and not submitted for that purpose to any other media.

The papers submitted may be written in Spanish or Valencian languages, although the Editorial Board allows for exceptionally accepting papers in other languages.

The author may submit only one paper and participate in another as a co-author as long as he/she is not the first signatory of the latter. The maximum number of authors per article will be four.

The Editorial Board may reject an article without evaluation when it considers that it does not comply with the formal and content standards of the journal.

 

5. ASSESSMENT PROCESS

Once the articles that meet the formal and content standards have been selected, the Editorial Board will send the originals to the external evaluators, who will be renowned researchers and specialists in the field. Neither the articles’ authorship nor the external evaluators’ names will be known during the evaluation process. However, the journal may publish the work of external evaluators who have collaborated with it in previous years, provided they give their consent.

Finally, the Editorial Board will decide whether or not to publish the paper based on external reports.

Authors will be informed of the acceptance or rejection of the paper.

Each published work will indicate the dates of receipt and approval of the same.

 

6. FORMAT AND EXTENSION

The paper should be submitted only by USB flash drive, CD, e-mail or WeTransfer, using the Word software. The papers should not exceed 20 pages without images (which should be numbered), with a maximum of 53,000 characters (including spaces). An abstract in Spanish and English must accompany the text. It will have an approximate length of ten lines each (abstracts with a significantly shorter length will not be accepted). Abstracts, which will precede the text, should provide information on the paper’s subject matter and include the necessary descriptors (up to five words separated by a slash). The literature references will be included in the total count of sheets/characters.

It is recommended that the title should not exceed 30 words, including empty words (articles, determiners, prepositions, …), and should clearly and directly reflect the content of the paper. No more than eight illustrations of optimum quality, precise and contrasted, shall be accepted and included in the text. An image caption, including information regarding the title or content of the image and the author or source of the photograph, shall accompany them. In addition to being inserted in the text, the images must be presented in a separate document to facilitate the layout work, with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. and 15 cm. on each side.

In Extenso, chapter papers will be between 30 and 60 pages long, with a maximum of 160,000 characters (including spaces). The number of illustrations shall be limited to 18. The specifications for pagination, format, support, typographical standards for presenting the texts, resolution and technical characteristics of the images will be the same as for the rest of the papers.

Delivery of originals shall be made before May 15, 2023.

 

7. TYPOGRAPHICAL STANDARDS FOR PRESENTATION OF TEXTS
