Art History 233 - MEDIEVAL: PILGRIMAGE & CRUSADE

Focusing on buildings and representations created from the 11th through the 13th century, this course explores the intersection between artistic production and the movement, peaceful and bellicose, of people, ideas, and objects during the Romanesque and early Gothic periods. Topics include monastic and royal patronage; the pilgrimage church and Crusader castle as specific building types; iconographic programs and their political agendas; the transnational circulation of artefacts and cross-cultural visual encounters.
