    Description
    This survey introduces students to art and architecture of the western world from the end of the Roman Empire to the mid-18th century, including Medieval, Renaissance, Islamic, Baroque, and Rococo. We will think about how art and architecture reflect and impact religious, political, economic, and social histories. Taking an object-based approach, this course delves into the myriad ways that art can reveal nuances of cultural histories while developing skills of visual literacy.
