Info:
Art history provides the opportunity to explore visual culture, as well as social, aesthetic, and personal values that help shape it. Students are introduced to the study of art history and archaeology through general introductory courses that focus on European, Asian, and American art, and world archaeology. In more advanced courses, students enjoy studying original works of art owned by the Washington University Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, the Saint Louis Art Museum, and local private collections.
