Description: This course examines the visual culture of Renaissance Rome through the prism of the papacy and urban experience. We will study architecture, urban schemes, fresco cycles, altarpieces, illuminated manuscripts, sculptures, spectacles, and processions, including some of the most famous artistic projects produced in the period: the papal apartments frescoed by Raphael, Michelangelo's work in the Sistine Chapel, and the building of the new St. Peter's.
