Baroque and Renaissance Art History provides the opportunity to learn about artists like Raphael, Caravaggio and Bernini! If you are ready to learn about Raphael’s Cupid & Psyche or Michelangelo’s Pietas, then this is the course for you!

We had a wonderful time in the ancient city course this week! We visited the Capitoline Museum, Tarquinia and Cerveteri (a student favorite), and Villa Julia. Our main themes of the week were cross culturalization and how dating affects our understanding of Rome.
