Gerda Panofsky taught and published widely and internationally on Gothic as well as 15th–17th Italian art and architecture. In particular, she wrote a book on the patronage and iconography of Michelangelo’s statue of “Christ” in S. Maria sopra Minerva in Rome. She has published in Slavics, producing articles and the book, Nikolai Mikhailovich Karamzin in Germany [1789]. She has been the sole editor of her husband Erwin Panofsky's Habilitationsschrift on Michelangelo of 1920, which was believed to be lost and whose manuscript was re-discovered in 2012.
