AHMM 300: Masters and Monuments of Rome


Credits: 3
Schedule: TBA
Instructor: TBA
Course/lab Fee: 75 Euros
Cross-Listing: None
Prerequisite: None

This course introduces students to the artistic riches of Rome designed to examine the art and architecture within the context of the history of the city, focusing on the main representative works from the most important periods of Italian art: Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and Modern. The course will also explore the historical factors which made Rome Caput Mundi - the capital of the world - the birthplace of the Roman Empire, and center for Christianity, as well as the role of the patronage of the arts and architecture on the part of Vatican and the powerful families such as the Chigi, Borghese, Pamphili and others.

A major component of the course is the study of art and architecture on site as a means to further appreciate the social function of art, its relationship to its context, and the impact on the viewer.

This course includes weekly site visits, field trips, and individual research projects.
