This day school will examine key painters, sculptors and architects active in present-day Germany, Hungary and Poland in c.1400-1800, including Veit Stoss and Albrecht Dürer. Spanning artistic styles such as Late Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque, it will highlight the importance of patronage in the dissemination of artistic ideas across Europe. Works of art and architecture will be considered within their scholarly context, focusing upon both primary and secondary sources.

This day school is one in a series of three taught day schools on the theme of “Visual Cultures of Central Europe: Germany, Hungary and Poland 1400 -1800” that form the third unit of the Diploma in History of Art: Renaissance and Baroque 2019-20.

Each of the three day schools covers a different subject topic within the wider unit theme and are being offered as separate stand alone non award bearing day schools where students will be taught alongside the existing Diploma level group.

Each of the day schools in the series is individually priced at £110 and the dates and titles of each of the day schools are given below:

Saturday 16 May 2020: Artistic transmission across Central Europe - NOW ONLINE
