This course traces the emergence of the Roman Baroque, from its origins as religious propaganda in the service of the Counter Reformation to other, more secular forms that evolved to serve the power of 17th-century monarchs and the ambitions of the aristocracy. Within the larger context of Roman Baroque, movements such as Classicism and Realism will be examined, as well as their later development in France and Spain. Artists to be studied include Bernini, Caravaggio, and Borromini in Italy; Poussin and Claude in France; and Velásquez and Zurbarán in Spain. 1.00 units, Lecture
