22-1102 Art History II: Renaissance to Modern

This course introduces the history of art from the Renaissance to the Modern period. European art of the Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, and Romantic eras will be studied, as will the artistic movements of the 19th and 20th centuries. The art of Africa, the Americas, and Asia during the same time period may also be surveyed. Students study the aesthetic values of these cultures in relation to historical, socio-political, religious, and other contexts for the creation of art works. This is a continuation of Art History I: Stone Age to Gothic, but can be taken independently.
