Description: This course will consider European art from the long nineteenth century,
looking in detail at the key movements and artists from this dramatic period
of history. We will begin by placing Neo-Classicism in the context of the
emergence of the French Revolution, while ending with the emergence of
abstraction in the era of the First World War. In so doing we will also
consider the varied art historical methods through which scholars have
addressed the art of this period. Department Permission Required.
