Venice: Art and Myth

Autumn AN134
Philip CottrellNew Course

This course acts as an introduction to the art and culture of Venice during its golden age of 1450 – 1600, with a particular focus on painting. By examining masterpieces by such renaissance artists as the Bellini, Titian, and Tintoretto, as well as the work of architects such as Andrea Palladio, we shall examine a period in which many of the myths and traditions of Venice were simultaneously challenged and renewed.
