Course Description
The objectives are to study the production of meaning in paintings and frescos, sculpture, stained glass, architecture and other art forms that were commissioned through the church and state patronage system; to analyze how these images are used to represent and define social order; how these images support the patron's interpretation of history while appealing to aesthetic needs; and ways in which art supported the educational and evangelical aims of church and state. The course will introduce students to the visual and critical language of art produced at this time and analyze works in the context of contemporary history. The thematic focus of this class is designed for Italian cultural studies. No knowledge of Italian is required.
