| Description: | In the words of Louis XIV, "fashion is the mirror of history." This first-year seminar will explore what fashion in (art) history can tell us about gender, sexuality, class, race, and revolution. Incorporating a global perspective (although concentrating primarily on the West), further themes to be considered include the textile trade, commerce and empire, identity politics and nation-building. From the chopine to the corset, the pannier to the Pompadour pump, we will incorporate surviving examples of material culture as we explore the art and history of European fashion from the 15th to the 19th century. Course is for first-year, non-transfer students only. |

| Description: | This course will examine the varied roles of women in the production of Renaissance art: as makers of art; as commissioners, collectors, and patrons of art; and as subjects of the artistic gaze. In conjunction with the courts of Europe, we will also address women in the arts through a global lens. Using a variety of primary sources, including painting, sculpture, print material, textiles, and archival documents, we will explore both the historical spaces women occupied as well as contemporary scholarship situating women within the history of art. In the process, students will gain a deeper understanding of women's agency in Renaissance art, cultivate tools of art-historical analysis, and hone skills in presenting such analysis in written form. |

| Description: | Ancient Greeks and Romans found Egypt to be an exceptionally enthralling world, in terms not only of its physical features but also of its people, monuments, and traditions. This course will explore how different views of Egypt emerged in the Graeco-Roman world; it will also investigate the possible reasons for the remarkable popularity and allure of Egypt and things Egyptian as reflected in the writings of Greek and Roman authors as well as in the art and architecture of the Mediterranean world in Classical antiquity. In this seminar, we will read primary literary sources (in translation) that focus on the reception of ancient Egypt and, more specifically, its history, religion, and customs. Several of these sources also offer a privileged viewpoint to investigate how the perception of notable Egyptian figures -- chiefly Cleopatra -- was shaped by Rome to suit a specific agenda. In addition to the written sources, we will look at the artistic and archaeological evidence that best showcases the impact of Egypt's legacy on Graeco-Roman traditions. The readings assigned for each class will also provide a broad sample of secondary sources, consisting of some of the most significant scholarship on the image of Egypt in Classical antiquity. |

| Description: | Among the most famous artists of the canon of European modern art is Vincent van Gogh, known for his expressive painting, his famous letters that chart his tumultuous career, and a short creative life marked by intense and innovative work. This seminar examines his career first through a study of his practice and in particular, his deep engagement with the art and literature of his time. Over Fall Break(Oct, 4-8, 2024), we have the incredible opportunity to travel to London as a class (courtesy of the West Bay View Foundation) to study a major Van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery. In the latter half of the class, we will study the mythologies surrounding his art, particularly through the lenses of "genius" and "madness." A final section of the class will be devoted to presentations made in the galleries of the Saint Louis Art Museum. Due to the required travel component, students will be interviewed prior to being admitted to the small class of six; write the instructor to arrange a short interview before registration. Both advanced art history majors and graduate students are welcome to apply. Prerequisites: at least one advanced course in art history, or graduate status. All require permission of the instructor. |
