ART 275 - Renaissance Art in Europe (4 Cr.)

We will consider northern and southern Renaissance artists from Giotto and Jan Van Eyck to Michelangelo and Durer in their cultural and social contexts. Topics for discussion include the rise of the Artist, the emergence of early modern art theory, the assimilation of antiquity, and the development of portraiture, landscape, and mythological subjects in the visual arts.
