Abstract
The course objective is to investigate European painting of the seventeenth century, a period normally called the Baroque. Students will be introduced to the major artists, subjects, and stylistic developments of the period, with an emphasis on Caravaggio, Rembrandt, and their followers. Additional emphasis will be placed on issues such as patronage, technique, the relationship of painting to sculpture and architecture, and recent discoveries and debates. The course will include visits to the Memphis Brooks Museum and student presentations.
