DESCRIPTION
The Middle Ages was a thousand-year period (ca. A.D. 400-1400) during which Europe was dominated by Christianity. During this period art was used almost exclusively in the service of the Church and illustrates the deep religious fervor of the age. This course will examine the development of architecture, painting and sculpture during this long and fascinating period in European culture which divides Classical civilization from the beginnings of the development of modern culture during the Renaissance.
