HAA 0070 European Visual Traditions
(offered infrequently)
An introduction to European art and architecture from the early Renaissance to the present, the course will also include American works from the 18th century onwards. It will focus on a few key works by major artists in each period in all three media, and will consider the function or purpose of each work, the aesthetic principles they embodied, the motives of the patrons who commissioned or bought these works, and the historic impact of major artistic innovations.
