Subject:

Description:

In Principles of Art History ( 1915), Heinrich W?lfflin devised five criteria of opposition (linear to painterly, plane to recession, closed to open form, multiplicity to unity, and absolute to relative clarity) for understanding the changes in painting, sculpture, and architecture from the Renaissance to the Baroque. W?lfflin's criteria provide a starting point for understanding architectural form in the 17th and 18th centuries. This seminar addresses the form and function of architecture in cities during this period.
