AAH 324 - Art and Architecture of the Italian Renaissance


Prerequisites: AAH 121  and AAH 122  or permission of the instructor
During the Italian Renaissance, artists and architects produced works for their cities, for courts and rulers, and for one another. While this course addresses the major monuments of Italian Renaissance, questions about viewership and audience will drive our inquiry, as we consider “for whose eyes was this monument constructed?” Artists and architects increasingly took this question of viewership into account, and so we will examine the objects and structures they created as embedded within their local cultural, intellectual, and political contexts.
