Subject:
Description:
A survey of painting in Flanders, the Netherlands, and Germany during the 15th and 16th centuries. The course first examines the remarkable innovations of Flemish and Dutch artists working abroad, primarily under the patronage of the French court. It then shifts to the emergence, in the north, of new forms of painting in the work of Hieronymus Bosch, Pieter Bruegel, Albrecht Dürer, Hans Holbein, Jan van Eyck, and Rogier van der Weyden. Developments in landscape and portraiture, the use of oils, and changing patronage are also studied, as is the influence of various philosophical and religious movements, including nominalism, the Devotio moderna, and mysticism.
