About this course:

From tile to trompe l'oeil, artists have created some of the most breathtaking images in telling the stories of mythology, religion, and history in their decorative work. In this course, we look at how artists embellished ceilings in a variety of settings, from the Sistine Chapel to government office buildings to Gilded Age mansions; and how these grand, elaborately decorated spaces were intricately crafted to impress wealth, status, and position. We also discuss the various techniques and motifs of the historical eras in which these works of art were created. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to the video for 30 days.
