AH 325 – ROME FROM RENAISSANCE TO MANNERISM
This course introduces students to the varied works of art produced by artists active in Rome in the mid-sixteenth century, with the legacy of Raphael and under the shadow of Michelangelo.
These artists are often banded together under the ill-defined term “Mannerism,” which emerged after the death of Raphael and the Sack of Rome in the 1520s. The course reconsiders the concept of “Mannerism” and the artists associated with it. It ends with the arrival in Rome of Caravaggio, which ushers in the Baroque.
